HI all, The left engine mount in the vs is stuffed, does anyone know if you can do 1 at a time, or do you have to do them as a pair? Also is it easier to do one then the other, or lift them both out at once??? Thanks in advance.
I think it would be very difficult to do one at a time, because you need to have both engine mounts loose to be able to lift the motor up to make way for either mount to be removed.
You could try though.
Yea, I thought as much. I did a search, some say it's hard , some say not so much.
The left is the tougher of the two. So you might as well do both. The aircon compressor needs to be removed. Done mine by myself, just took a while. A lot of wriggling around, and the engine too.

You can do one at a time and as long as you remove the aircon compressor and the take the bracket off!! Easier on a hoist too than trying to do it on your back under the car!!
I just done the one that needed doing, not that hard if you have a jack and stands.
