Just a heads up on fitting the dogbone mount guys. I found that the centre bore of the metal insert on the side that goes into the subframe was too small for the VW bolt by about a millimeter. Just a case of drilling it out slightly, think an 11mm drill bit did the trick if I remember correctly.

Unless of course they have changed it to the correct size.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Ill provide this feedback to VT and Alex as it would be much better if these fitted without having to modify them.

Have you fitted the others? Any feedback?

Yeh I fitted all 3, must be about 7 weeks ago now, as I said at the beginning of this thread, I think it is one of the best investments I made for my Polo.

I was initially worried that it would cause excessive vibration and noise by fitting all 3 but if anything there is less of both. The car just feels altogether better on both a passive and aggresive take off, elimenates all engine movement and all the wee niggly knocking noises I used to have and convinced it helps get the power onto the tarmac alot better.

Wouldnt hesitate to recommend this upgrade to anyone.

The gearbox side one was a bit fiddley to get all the holes lined up but got there in the end by lowering and raising the gearbox with the trolley jack a few times until they were all lined up.
