And there is a guide for it somewhere. I sheared the bolt though getting it off and had to get a bolt from a dealer, 2 quid!

The mount is hydraulic so if it is leaking then it is knackered. :smiley:

As I mentioned in your other thread, the gearbox mount is really easy to change and the front engine mount isn't much harder. Only the rear engine mount is a fiddly f**k*r to get access to undo the bolts.

Yea these rear mounts are full of oil,  that one is simple to change, just jack it up, unbolt the top bracket and swap.
