I appreciate you doing these on the ground... Which is where most people will do it! Respect

[@vwd.darwin7529]

Im glad I found this channel tbh. It’s helpful to anyone with a gti.

[@timondadilaadila2275]

Was your car vibrating when taking off?

[@Dcc357]

I had the ECS insert in my 2021 GTI manual for almost 2000 miles now. I think the benefits outweigh the cons and I really like how it drove after installing. The clutch engagement feels more natural without the engine moving a ton, which also helped me shift it better since it was my first manual car. No wheel hop, and vibration is not that bad. Very easy to get used to.

[@CameronAlford]

I love it!!

[@timothybracken1728]

is the insert the same as the dogbone mount ?

[@nachomandetailingservices1057]

Once you do top mounts it does vibrate a lot more but when you know what you got you know what you got. I like your videos good for helping people keep up the good work. I never own a VW. But I may get one 2022

[@GermanEliteTuning]

Great DIY. That’s a must upgrade for launching GTIs.

[@CameronAlford]

It really is!

[@DustinDriver]

I pulled the subframe on my MK6, pressed in a new doughnut mount and added the dog bone (both from 034). I could only stand the NVH for three days. Took it all apart and put the stock stuff back. An insert is the way to go-less NVH and easy to take out if you don't like it!

[@um-dum-d4323]

All your videos offer a lot of insight man. Appreciate it

[@only1robo]

I busted the bolts on my MK6 with K04 turbo. Engine moved forward and kept the fans from spinning so it over heated. Fast and easy upgrade if you're going to tune your engine

Im somewhat of a newbie to all this. Since I got my Mk7 Autobahn Ive been snoopin around

[@einfelder8262]

I put an insert and aftermarket dogbone mount on my 08 MKV GTI. Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant. Nasty vibration reversing up a slope, but otherwise effectively no vibration. No axle hop, no banging on hard acceleration. This and a Whiteline rear sway bar made my MKV perfect for me - no more rear wheel hop going round corners with gusto, just a faint bit more load on the steering making everything feel better.

[@hivvirus3717]

I got the same but for a mk7. the vibrations in reverse gear is a lot especially on a slope. Just wanted to know if this will mess up the drivetrain in anyway or am I good?

[@einfelder8262]

@@hivvirus3717 Your car is good, not sure about your health though.

[@eligoodwin6900]

By BANGING, do you mean when going from 1st to 2nd during launch? That's what happens to me sometimes when I launch it

[@einfelder8262]

​@@eligoodwin6900 You would possibly get some axle tramp going from 1st to 2nd, mine is DSG so probably it's more likely caused by fairly violent engine rocking with the standard dogbone softish mount. I once experienced a violent bang from the right front when doing a left turn at pretty insane speed and the traction control slammed on the brake.... maybe this can also happen under launch? Anyway, upgrade your dogbone mount and insert. the slight vibration reversing uphill is nothing.

[@almaadams3631]

If you guys are up tuning your GTIs, Do your upper motor mounts as well. Oil filled mounts don't stand up to the increased torque for very long. You will get used to it and love it. Black forest stg1 mounts mk6 gti.

[@vwgti8091]

Did you notice a weird click noise when accelerating or letting off the gas after the tune?

[@classymotiv2097]

@@vwgti8091 No, I guess it depends on what tune you get. I got the unitronics tune to stay safe, I also got my suspension inspected and didn't have to replace the dogbone. But I did have to replace the aux water pump which was probably due to tunning it.

[@nozo9810]

You should get a big break kit then go for more power

[@nicholasvonrhine6311]

Outstanding.

[@pizzaonly1712]

If you had a 2D mk7 GTI... Would you do a allwheeldrive conversion? People say (Just buy a R)... But the thing is... they don't make a mk7 2D R. I think it'd be badass.... obviously it's expensive to get all the parts. But just buy a salvage R, and take the rear diff, and Haldex system.

[@Wtj491]

Do you need the vehicle lifted up on all 4's for the sake of engine balance during install?

[@stevenpatrickbrownco]

Hi 👋🏼 I am noticing in my 2017 VW Jetta GLI there’s vibration coming from the engine once the car hits a high MPH of 70+. What engine motors is compatible to help create a less NVH in cabin and allow the car to drive better as acceleration increases?

[@RecycledDonuts]

My uncle had his pendulum snap at the stretch bolt with this kit. Get rid of it and go with something else. It shifted his motor forward, coolant hose into pulley .

[@iZephiroth]

Yeah that’s because he most likely only did the insert and pendulum mount. I guarantee you if he got the upper and lower engine mounts alongside them it would still be good.

[@d.d3718]

Hello, good luck for your channel, from your experience, I can ask you something, I have a golf 7 2.0 tdi and my car, when it is in low rpm, feels a vibration like a tunnel or like a subwoofer, what do you think is something that I can fix? that doesn't make me feel comfortable

What's the point of torquing the bolts to a spec if he's then turning them another 90° afterwards?

[@connorhird3390]

Cause that’s the torque spec for literally so many bolts. For instance 40Nm + 90degrees. The 90 degrees is is stretch the bolt as per it’s designed use and also hence they are one time use bolts

This is a transmission mount, not engine. In this case, the difference isn't much since the transmission is bolted directly to the engine. But the mount is connected to the transmission, not engine.
