Are the motor mounts for the TDI identical to the 1.8T and 2.Slow?
Or are there subtle differences?
Thanks in advance,
Jud.

Some of them have different part numbers. I think the side mounts may be the same, the roll mount underneath is different.

Thanks!
You can probably read between the lines: over at the 'Tex someone is always selling motor mounts, usually from the 1.8T.
My passenger side mount is broken, and since I'll be towing 1,500-2,000 pounds across the country, I want all of the mounts to be fresh and strong.

I replaced all 3 mounts on my car with BFI stage 1 mounts, the drone was a bit much for the first 1,000 or so miles, but now it's barely noticeable.

Oh.. 5 spd or auto. Auto has a water cooler option, Dont think the 5 spd does. Neither was designed to pull that much, that long a distance. And the Auto does NOT like heat.

I pulled 3000 pounds halfway across the country with mine, barely wimpered... got my worst tank ever, though: 39 MPG.
