    Thanks for the video. Was getting significant vibration when shifting from park to reverse while in reverse with foot on the brake. Either had to be transmission mount or engine mounts so I started with the less expensive option first. Installed after-market Uro transmission mount for about $35. Worked like a charm. Here are the torque settings that I used. a) Small Bracket (6:00 min mark) 3 triple-square bolts 30 ft lbs; b) Large Bracket (6:45 min mark) 4 large triple-square bolts 52 ft lbs; c) three nuts (7:20 mark) 15 ft lbs; d) Metal Bar (7:45 min mark) 2 triple-square bolts 15 lbs PLUS 90 degrees.

    Super helpful. Am trying to drop my transmission filter on my 2018 SQ5 and it's blocked by a similar subframe cradle. However on the SQ5 the subframe cradle also has support mounting brackets for the dual exhaust pipes on both sides. When I drop the subframe cradle I've got support for the transmission with another floor jack but the dual exhaust pipes on both sides also drop. Looks like it's less of an issue for the Q5 and I just have to get another pair of jackstands. Thank you for the excellent walkthrough - helped me troubleshoot how to tackle my scenario.

    Wondering if before you changed the transmission mount assembly, did you have noise/vibrations in the cabin? I swapped out the motor mounts with Street Density mounts and got very noticeable vibrations. Had my shop remove the trans insert that fills the void and it somewhat minimized the vibrations but a rather noticeable amount still exists. Wondering if I should replace the transmission mount assembly and maybe try the ECS transmission bushing insert as well to remedy the vibrations. Car has 120k, A4.

      I had a transmission insert for a week on my 16 A4 and it made the car feel like a an absolute beater. I thought I ruined it. I bought a used but very good condition A8 mount and now no jerks and it’s direct fit. Now it’s very clean shifting and no funny noises either

    • @Mechani_Cole
      @Mechani_Cole  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for sharing that, good to know! I added the insert to my wife's Q5 and it helped a ton. Makes it drive way nicer without jerking shifts. I have heard similar stories though about it that you experienced. Good to know about the A8 mount though. Wonder if it fits my 4.2 A6?🤔

    • @Mechani_Cole
      @Mechani_Cole  2 роки тому

      Cornelius the street density mounts will 100% add more vibration to the cabin. They even say in the description that they will cause more vibration. It's more for a street racing application, not so much a daily driver as it makes it very stiff. Stiffer polyurethane is what you are feeling.

    • @Wututalmbout
      @Wututalmbout 2 роки тому

      @@Mechani_Cole the description on 034 site for Street Density motor mounts actually states “manufactured with 45 durometer damping medium to limit unwanted NVH transfer into the cabin.” That’s why it bothered me when I had this extreme amount of vibrations in the car. As a result 034 recommended that I remove the 034 billet transmission insert, which I did, and it decreased the NVH slightly I would say; but still noticeable NVH. I’ve ordered a new transmission mount assembly as well as ECS’ poly transmission insert to attempt to remedy the vibrations I currently have. Haven’t received the parts as of now so couldn’t provide any results. 034 DID however mention their transmission insert would possibly cause NVH if I’m not mistaken, yet I never had any issues with it until installing their motor mounts.

    You shouldn't refit the little bar .The two bolts need to sit in the recesses to ensure no movement in the mount? The insert isn't designed to have the little bar refitted.
