The Dogbone Mount MK7 will also fit the MK8 GTI and MK8 Golf R. Why should you upgrade the doggone mount? If you upgrade your engine mount, will you get engine vibration? Should you replace the whole dogbone, or just the bushing insert? How to properly install a dogbone insert, and how to replace the whole dog bone mount. All this and more while installing the ‪@034motorsport‬ Billet DogBone Kit! #humblemechanic #034motorsports
Be sure to double check which mount your car has!

Great info. And just to reinforce what you said ref improving the shifting, it does make a difference. Even if you have an older higher mileage car, changing the dogbone, even with a stock one, will have a positive impact on the shifting.

I just did the upper/lower insert on my mk8 and it’s waaaay too harsh. I’m gonna take it out and try to make sure it’s not bound up when I tightened it. 034 has a video saying it can be installed wrong and is a lot harsher

@jetpilot7473 Месяц назад

With a little WS40 the top one slides in from the bottom pretty easily eliminating the need to pull the sway bar.

@S.Double.0h 2 года назад

I installed the 034 pendulum arm and, upper and lower inserts on my Mk7.5. The only time I experience the most vibration was engaging first gear after that it's all good. I love the stiffness when getting on it. It just feels more solid.

@austintrajkovski3007 2 года назад

FYI, you can do just the pendulum bar to make a massive difference on hop in a gti without needing the inserts and not much added vibration from experience. I ran the apr insert on my 7.5 gti and done very little and added a lot of vibration, and ended up snapping my stock pendulum mount, remove the insert which was bent as well and just went for a full apr dogbone bar and the car is soo much better less vibration, more grip, less tramp, smooth wheelspin and more responsive front end on the power, highly recommended to do just the dogbone bar

My 3 favorite upgrades on my 2014 GLI : (1) Unitronic Stage 1 ECU/TCU Tune (50 more hp, nearly 100 more tq) $900 (2) 034 Motorsport Rear Swaybar (no under-steer, rides like on rails in curves) $260 (3) 034 Motorsport metal dogbone insert. Improves shifting with no NVH. $50 I would do this to any VW car in the future.

@Sagiso2746 4 месяца назад

I find it ironic that I just got a Unitronic stage 1+ tune for my 2014 Gli, and have a 034 rear swaybar, 034 metal dogbone inserts, and a torque solution billet pendulum mount on the way.

@NorthCoastWorkshop 2 года назад

I fitted a yellow Powerflex insert to my cupra R's dogbone mount last year, and I'm still debating whether to swap it for a slightly softer red insert (for diesel cars), as the vibrations in reverse, and low down revs is a bit harsh. Great informative vid as always! 👍

@MrZyLeXx 2 года назад

Im pretty sure im running the purple one in my car, not too bad and i recently fitted the entire arm and i don't feel that it made a huge difference in terms of vibrations, i have not launched the car since so can't say if it helped with wheel hop or something like it.

My 7.5 GTI (DSG) had this exact 034 insert, I must say I mostly noticed more vibration, there was a v small improvement, not sure if I'd do it again

@Artemis_Prix 5 месяцев назад

For my manual TTRS, I believe the bottom insert is the perfect compromise. It makes a big difference in terms of improving shift feel and minimizing drivetrain movement, while having no detectable increase in NVH (no joke). However, the dogbone bushings will only last 10-12k miles when the bottom one is installed. I had installed the upper insert as well at a later time. Although it provided a modest increase in shift feel, it unfortunately resulted in a major increase in NVH. In addition, it provided zero improvement in terms of the longevity of the dogbone bushings. In fact, they only had lasted around 8k miles which was contrary to what one would expect. By comparison, the OEM dogbone bushings last about 15-20k miles. Can't comment on the 034 Pendulum mount upgrade.

@myshots101 2 года назад

I've been fixing an mk5 and my torque with these things is good and tight since they seem to want that stupid 90 degrees. Dumbest thing I've seen instead of just sticking to a number and be done with that like other manufacturers. Engine hasn't fallen off yet and I did put in two new upper mounts with the same bolts. That bottom frame bushing looks like a pita since you probably have to take it all down just to change those.

@scoob66 2 года назад

@myshots101 I mean other manufacturers do use them, it just varies, but they're actual tested numbers still, it's where the bolt provides the most clamping force from its stretch while still retaining strength and not snapping

@scoob66 2 года назад

You don't usually wanna do the angle torque with the old hardware, though, as it's already been stretched to that maximum clamping force and it distorts the bolt, so doing it again could break it

My car (2017 GTI, bought used, still stock) hops violently if I try to accelerate hard from a stop (it bangs so hard that it sounds like it's going to break the car). It's so bad that I thought maybe one or more mounts were bad. I'm not sure if it's a normal amount or not, but your footage with the stock dogbone shows a lot of engine movement, so I'm hoping that replacing the dogbone will eliminate it. I intend to continue to modify the car and run it at the drag strip so I am erring on the stiffer side. I'm no stranger to stiff drivetrain mounts and I actually prefer some of that vibration to come through, especially on a vehicle that is as quiet as this car.

@dominicanstig5196 ya unfortunately the two bolts on the aftermarket downpipe came out somehow. Stupid I know but I went and got new bolts and it's been fine ever since. The bolts under the car that connect it to the sub frame. Hope that helps. Not sure if it's the same sound or same setup.

@@vwgti8091 Yeah mine in completely stock and about a week ago the car started to do a subtle but annoying clicking noise intermittently when going into gear or just sitting in neutral. Might just do a bolt check to see if that fixes the issue. Most MK8's have this same issue so I’m not too worried.

@dominicanstig5196 ah ok. Ya I don't know much about mk8. I honestly don't even drive mine all that much anymore. Let me know what you find if you remember. Good luck!

don't forget the motor mounts.. They really help take the slop out. With all the various bushings and mounts done, there's like zero driveline lash, but NVH is still low.
