Product Details
Fitted to the 2012 Volkswagen Passat Trendline (B7): the Whiteline Front Engine Mount. Placement: front. Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: check voiding of OEM bushings first, installs into voiding of original bushings. The listing names the Trendline trim. The kit contains 1 insert bushing, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease. Part number KDT968.
Mounts are wear items: heat and oil break down the rubber over time. Replacing a tired one steadies the engine, removes the vibration it lets through, and keeps the engine in its intended position. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 2 hours. It does not require a wheel alignment. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Passat: Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing.
Features
- 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.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Easy to fit: Designed for an easy install with ordinary shop equipment.
