   Been investigating the vibrations from my car and narrowed it down to one of the mounts. Whipped out the ECU to look at the drivers one and came across this
   
   
   
   Big brass ball thing was loose
   
   
   
   
   Should it have a bolt going from in here
   
   
   
   
   To the screwdriver end here
   
   
   
   
   
   What do I have to replace the brass bit and bolt? or can I just get a bolt?
   
   
   Also the rubber here is loose
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   Should that be replaced too?
   
   
   And wheres the best place to get all this stuff?
   
   
   Cheers Gavin

   i didnt think it would be the gearbox mount! tbh i havent pulled a top mount apart, could it not be easier to try and source one from a scrapper?
