Engine Mountings ??

BobC

Can anybody tell me if there are any known issues with the Vectra SRi150 engine mountings? Albeit mine has only done 54,000 miles.
Unless I am fairly gentle changing up from 1st to 2nd gear there seems to be a noticeable clonk when lifting the clutch and getting the power back on. Is this known to be a fault or gave I got a shot engine mounting? Any input appreciated.

Rear mount on the Vectra is a common problem. Attached to the gearbox. Pig of a job to replace too. The Vectra seems to want to let the engine out anyway when the mounts are good!

Its just fiddly! And a bit time consuming from what I have read when others have replaced them.
