POWERFLEX PFF5-224 Upper Engine Mount Insert (Petrol/Tuned Diesel) for MINI R55 / R56 / R57 2006-2014

PFF5-224 is made fromourYellow 70Adurometer material, providing an excellent balance of strength and compliance for improvedperformance, whilst limiting NVH transmission into the cabin. This part is recommended for Petrol models and high-torquetuned Diesel models. A small increase inNVH, usually at idle, should be expected when stiffening the connecting mount between the engine/transmission and chassis. The harder the material used, the greater the NVH transmitted. Complimenting products such asPFF5-220andPFF5-225, our newPFF5-224Upper Engine Mount Insertis designed to fill the void in the OE rubber upper engine mount to restrict movement.The original rubber engine mount softens and perishes with age, losingitsability to dampen effectively andpromoting unwanted engine movement. By fitting our new insert, it acts as a buffer by restricting movement within the bush thus improving throttle response, sharpeninggear changes, and reducingwheel hop for improved traction.The bush requires no pressing or burning, simply peen the insert into position and refit the mount!
