S60 D5 - Top Engine Mount Movement Normal?

[JTSD5]

Hi

As the title says really, is this much movement in the top mount normal? I know there meant to move slightly but seems abit much? Can rock the whole strut brace forwards & backwards a fair bit..

Hi
I would fit a new top mount,
if you undo it you will find if it is broken up,

Thanks Dave, took it off today and was pretty worn out. Will get a new one!

no problem
they don't last long,

Any idea how long?

my last one on my d5 only lasted about 2-3years it was braking up,
it was a pattern one, I don't know if one from Volvo would last longer,
its worth looking at the gear box torque mount and the mount under the crank pulley to the subframe,
