xr6t4life Member 129 Member For: 14y 9m 9d Gender: Male Location: Perth WA Posted 26/07/13 10:05 AM Share Posted 26/07/13 10:05 AM today I just changed over my passenger side engine mount to stop my annoying vibration on idle, it was a fairly simple job took about an hour, bolts were easy enough to get to but I cant find anywhere on the net the procedure to change out the drivers side mount, I really don't want to take my turbo off again just to get to the top bolt if I don't have to. so I was wondering if anyone has changed over the drivers side mount and not taken the turbo off, any pointers or tips would be great. or even just to clarify that it is necessary to take the turbo off would help cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took turbo off to do mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But mine didn't have a H-Bracket so it wasn't too bad, I would take the turbo off if the H-Bracket is still on there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
