  • VIC Polo APR dogbone

    Hi Guys,

    Before I go and buy one, I thought I would just check if anyone is selling one for my Polo 9n3...

    Thanks

    Not something I can recall seeing come up here. Check ebay or google "polo engine mount insert". There's plenty on the market.

      Question for you: Why THAT mount? Considered others?

        Powerflex or Superpro (both through ebay) are the main brands, although I think mine is APR (up-sell when I was purchasing chip).

          You can buy superpro products at Bursons. They have a strong relationship with APR so are possibly the same product.

            not really. most people I have spoken to have the APR one, but from my perspective I dont really mind.
            Happy with any mount, as long as it is good quality and works well

              Wish I had never fitter the APR dogmount in my old Polo GTI. Worst decision I made with that car. The vibration just isn't worth it imho.

                I installed the 70shore Superpro bush and it was perfect. The tiniest extra amount of cabin vibration when the air-con is on.
                Other than that, no extra vibration at all with the added bonus of much more feel through the gear stick, better shifts etc.

                IIRC it was like $70 and 10 mins work to install.

                  Maybe the superpro is the best option then?
                  I was honestly embarassed to turn the aircon on when I had people in the car with the APR one....

                    Yeah that was my only concern as well having owned a rattly old car before that was a pain to sit in (blame the koreans).

                          I have never had a problem with vibrations with my APR mount. Well worth it I think. I got mine for $80, but about 4 years ago now.

                            The only vibation issues I've had have been in the past 2 weeks, I've had the dogbone bush for about 3 years.

                            Unsure why some have had the issues and others have not.
