Product Details
Made to fit the 2005-2008 Volkswagen Jetta 2.5 (1K), the Front Engine Mount from Whiteline. You receive 1 insert bushing, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease. The part number is KDT968. Trim named on the listing: 2.5. Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: check voiding of OEM bushings first, installs into voiding of original bushings. This part is for the front of the vehicle.
Engine mounts hold the engine in the chassis while absorbing vibration. When the rubber softens, the engine rocks under hard acceleration and when you lift off, and you may feel shudders, clunks, or a vague throttle. A new mount restores a solid hold. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a moderate job of about 2 hours. A wheel alignment is not required. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Jetta: Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
Features
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Easy to fit: Designed so the install needs no specialized skills or tools.
- Corrosion protection: Metal parts are plated to resist rust over the long term.
- Insert design: The inserts go into the original bushing rather than replacing it.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane bushings flex far less than rubber ones.
