Product Details
Whiteline built the Front Engine Mount for the 2006-2007 Volkswagen Passat Value Edition (B6). Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: check voiding of OEM bushings first, installs into voiding of original bushings. Trim named on the listing: Value Edition. Order it as part number KDT968. This part is for the front of the vehicle. Included: 1 insert bushing, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease.
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. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 2 hours of work listed. It does not require a wheel alignment. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Passat: Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, and Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link.
Features
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
- Insert design: Designed to be used with the factory bushing left in place.
- Easy to fit: Designed so the install needs no specialized skills or tools.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
- Corrosion protection: Metal parts are plated to resist rust over the long term.
