Whiteline Front Engine Mount for 2008-2009 Volkswagen Rabbit S (1K)

Product Details

The Whiteline Front Engine Mount fits the 2008-2009 Volkswagen Rabbit S (1K). The listing names the S trim. Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: check voiding of OEM bushings first, installs into voiding of original bushings. The kit contains 1 insert bushing, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease. Part number KDT968. It goes on 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.

Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 2 hours. No alignment is needed afterward. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, and Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit for the Rabbit.

Features

• Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
• Grease: Supplied with molybdenum disulfide grease for extended service life.
• Corrosion protection: A protective plating covers the metal components to guard against corrosion.
• Insert design: Designed to fit with the factory bushing in place.
• Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
• Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
