So are there any improved exhaust mounts?

[slindborg]

As above really, I see you can get normal ones for £20ish each on the rear but I'd sooner pay double that for a fit and forget setup lol

Does anyone sell an 'uprated' mounting at all?
If not I shall look into something as one of my rears has failed/sagged

 

[CuppyDean]

No uprated exhaust mounts available, search on here about them, hundreds of threads about them, cable ties seem to be the common method

I just buy the £15/pair jobs from CES.

All mounts will go sooner or later.

i just glued some more rubber in mine. have done c 15k just fine

Im using ford rubber mounts (fdr53) cut to fit in the square part of the renault mount.

 

[slindborg]

is that the actual part number...(I dont think it is but willing to be proved wrong), Might have to have a crack at that little setup

tbh the mounts could be £5 for all I care, but I'd sooner not be under the car every 6-12 months fitting new mounts, my non work time is worth more than that lol

 

[DrR]

Use cable tie, bits of pipe/rubber etc, mine had sat right for ages.

 

[slindborg]

any piccies of the bodge repair about? it will do till I can find a permy solution

FDR53 is the part number, just ask for them at any motor factors. If you pay more than £1.50 each your being ripped off.

[TimB]

Sod paying £70, just fill them with windscreen glue

 

[slindborg]

I'm lazy and impatient.

£70 mounts ordered apparently will be with me on friday too, which I thought was rather good

 

[ADY 554D]

[Bramley]

hmm i may order one of these for when mine dies again

 

[st3ve]

I find the ones that NWP sell which I believe are OEM Renault mounts are good enough. The rubber is glued onto the mount rather than just placed in like my old mount that I removed.

If you've got a K-tec zorst expect it to require cable ties.

 

[slindborg]

they arrived.
They are OEM metalwork Renault logos on that part. With some hard as you like rubber in the mount.

appologies for the dire pic, i was in a rush

 

[JackJack]

They look alright.
Let us know if they are any good once you get them fitted.

 

[scottiebhoy]

They look pretty decent, These the ones from prima racing?

 

[Gray]

With my old Clio I got a piece of polyurethane, cut it to shape, pressed into the original mount and super glued in place...

Cost me about £2

 

[ScarySquirrel]

So, have they been fitted, how are they?

 

[slindborg]

So, have they been fitted, how are they?

Not yet, the boiler at home failed so thats my 'project' this week rather than working on the car lol.

I cant imagine it will take longer than 5 mins to fit the mounts though... Thats a job for Sunday/Monday.
(yes from Prima racing (or cituning)

 

[scottiebhoy]

Got these fitted yet, opinions on them?

 

[slindborg]

Got them on today

poxy pax side bracket has come off the back box so its still floppy although with just the drivers side supporting it, its all very firm and now making the heat shield rattle as that had also fallen down..... Now quite how it passed an MOT 3 weeks ago with a broken bracket I dont know, but I'll be giving mr car dealer a call on tuesday lol.

The mounts fit fine, and are nice and firm so thats a win, and I had to put little to no effort in therefore they are worth a few hundred quid imho

 

[scottiebhoy]

Sounds good, so the exhuast sits pretty firm in the mounts?

 

[slindborg]

yep, even with only one mount actually doing anything its nice and firm

 

[clancy]

stainless cable ties or make your own, i made my own one for my mates car out of two old exhaust mounts the i chopped up and welded together, looks alreet after a polish

 

[Bramley]

Just bought one of these, was the order process abit quick and easy for you aswell? doesnt seem very secure
