Hi all, Where's the best place to get replacement engine mounts? Think all of mine need doing and was just wondering where the best/cheapest place to get them is?!
Thanks
Martin

GSF are quite cheap, but i not sure of he quality. I replaced all mine with genuine renault ones and they have been fine but cost about 2x the price of the GSF ones but i know they will last 100k so im happy with that

O/S mount is £96 +VAT and the gearbox mount was about £56 ish from renault, last time I asked.

Dont know about the dogbone tho, I recommend getting some powerflex bushes for that

£35 iirc from reno for the dogbone.
Punch out the rubber on the OEM dogbone, rotate 90 degrees and hey presto you have a Hill Power upgraded dogbone mount :D

Been using my Hill power dog bone (£65 delivered from Hill power) for about 14000 miles now - Still in good shape 8)

Thanks for the replies, they're quite alot more expensive than I was hoping!! Would these bushes be a good idea for the gearbox mount or ot worth bothering with?!

Has anyone heard of vibratech? mounts. A mate of mine who's vw mad says that in the vw world they're ones to go for but can't seem to find a website or any listed for renault!

I helped someone change their mounts and they bought an engine mount from GSF. When comparing it to the old one, its identical, except they'd scrubbed off the Renault logo and the Renault part number!

dunno if it's luck of the draw or what, but might be worth a look!
