Get a poly bush one  :smiley:

They can break as well, although it takes a bit longer.

Stainless steel exhaust  system is on the car, anyone think the weight of it could be the issue with rubber breaking time after time...

I've had genuine ones that go on me after about a week.

What are you hanging off them though, OEM system?

Yeah, I had one break. Popped into a local exhaust place and they gave me a couple of free hangers for free!

Try some polybush ones, VW ones just are not built to last with heavy StSt systems regardless of how they are put on. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volkswagen-Golf-MK2-Exhaust-Mountings-Bushes-Poly-/390281317117?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5ade944afd
