Product Details
Whiteline built the Front Engine Mount for the 2010-2013 Audi A3 TDI. The listing names the TDI trim. Order it as part number KDT968. In the box: 1 insert bushing, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease. It goes on the front of the vehicle. It is listed for the 8P chassis. Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: check voiding of OEM bushings first, installs into voiding of original bushings.
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.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 2 hours of work listed. A wheel alignment is not required. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit for the Audi A3.
Features
- Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
- Corrosion protection: The hardware is plated to stand up to road conditions.
- Insert design: Designed to be used with the factory bushing left in place.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
