engine movement..?



hello all.
ive got a 182 and when driving it hard it feels as if their is a fair bit of movement in the engine. i can push it back and forward a little by hand too which looks like its slack in the top mount by cambelt area. what mounts do people recomend changing for a road car. i dont mind buying new genuine ones if they will be better than it is now .
id consider uprated ones but dont really want it to make the car rattle and cause a noise like previous cars ive had with uprated mounts.
from what i can see the mounts are all std style ones at the mo..
any advice would be good..
thanks

Just standard replacements will be fine. If you want to upgrade to uprated ones then its best to do them all :)

The ktec uprated ones work ok, no too harsh in terms of vibration etc as still have a rubber element to them.

Thats what my mrs has on her daily, perfectly pleasant still.
We happily drive it 4 hours each way to visit her parents, or to the ring and back etc, no problems.

i have them fitted to my 182 and only get a little vibration at tickover, there is no engine movement now and no annoying manifold knocking on the subframe either.
 
Ok cool thanks ill order some up when I get to work. At the mo I can push the engine with ease so the mount bumps on the rubber stops on the top mount. It's still nice to drive but u can feel it slopping about.
