D5254T (to 2002, Audi) Top engine mount

[skye740]

Im looking to get a new engine top mount but not from stealers.. Who has them and easy are they to replace?

Do you mean the rubber part only or the metal part as well?

fer a Starter you DO NOT have a D5254T (Audi Engine) your Engine is a D5252T there aint no such a thing as a D5254T Engine ....

Yeah I know it says there is in the "Drop Down" box on this forum ... but THATS WRONG anorl!!! .. The Predecessor to the Volvo D5 (D5244T) engine was the Audi D5252T (as used in Audi's & VW Transporter Vans ect ect ...)

D5252T Engine AUDI ENGINE

103 kilowatts (140 PS; 138 bhp) (41.9 kW/L); 290 newton metres (214 ft·lbf) @ 1,900 rpm — 1994 Audi C4 100, Audi C4 A6, Volvo 850, Volvo S70, Volvo V70, early Volvo S80s

D5244T VOLVO D5 ENGINE

Keith - this is going to sound really silly, but having read the other 2 posts in this thread, I see no mention of the different types of engine etc, and can't fathom why you'd make a post that doesn't help in any way, other than saying "YOUR WRONG WRONG WRONG"

Remember, if its the forum thats got the wrong info, tell the Mods. Skye740 just chose the closest engine designation.

skye740 - try your local GSF or AllParts. Alternatively, have a chat with a local garage (doesn't have to be stealers) and ask them where they get them from. Shouldn't be too hard to replace, I assume its not going to be too different from the Petrol ones. Theres probably a walkthrough on Youtube (or even these forums!) somewhere

totally Agree Villan ..but my train of thought was that if the OP sets off searching for a Top Mount for a D5254T engine HE WONT FIND ONE (coz of wot I said in my Post above ....) i wanted to make sure he acquired the RIGHT mount for his engine

If he starts trawlin about fer a Poly-Bush for the Engine he THINKS he has he'll NEVER find one ..

But fair Play I do take your point about the "randomness" of my Post (I could & SHOULD) have explained what I was on about better ..

Thank you for the replies some helpful some not so! I am well aware of wat engine I have it ain't my fault that the people who set up the drop down list can't enter the correct digits.
The problem I have is that my trade factors can't source them and they say main dealer listing only! Gsf are none specific about which part it is and the price is only a few quid cheaper than main dealer ;(

These guys have the Meyle Hd version for about £15.

I have a poly bush fitted into the metal bracket that bolts to the back of the block. PM me if interested.

I know you specifically said you do not want one from a dealer but in case it helps we currently supply the genuine top mount bush for your engine for £12.67 inc vat plus postage (that's with 20% off Volvo retail price).

If you are interested at all (if your not no problem!) please see my signature below for information of how to order from us.

Well perhaps YOU should have made that clear in yer initial post then eh!! I'll use my telepathic abilities next time to read yer mind so I'll know how not to "Upset" you so much.

As I Said above

I Did not know you KNEW wat engine you had (how could I ?? YOU NEVER SAID SO!!) you asked fer an Engine Mount fer a D5254T Engine (which I pointed out to you does not Exist) I PERSONALLY DO NOT consider that to be "UNHELPFUL"
