Product detail:
Engine, transmission and chassis mounts034MotorsportAre designed to reduce engine and transmission movement to help transfer power to the road. By tightening the motion of the engine and transmission, drivers will immediately feel the differences the second they pull away.
Engine and transmission mounts034MotorsportOffer a real UPGRADE for those who additionally use the anti-squat support RacingLine. The mounts increase vibration and noise in the cabin, but034MotorsportWorked on this reference with the real objective of finding a compromise between performance and comfort. Consequently, the gain in terms of behavior and connection with the pilot at the wheel of his machine becomes ideal thanks to the initial rigidity of the support and the various rigid inserts which will be placed in the hollow spaces of the silent blocks.
However, it is preferable when assembling your new equipment to switch to new screws from034MotorsportWho will not have undergone other constraints beforehand. In this way the materials will be able to assume the increased rigidity of the new set-up.
When ordering please select the correct version.

The 034Motorsport MQB Upper Dogbone Anti Squat Engine Mount Insert is required for all Volkswagen and Audi MQB and MQB EVO vehicles using an aftermarket Dogbone Mount and Dogbone Mount Insert. Aggressive riding that causes the transmission to move violently, such as burns that induce wheel hop, will cause a bending moment in the DogBone's upper and lower mounts, causing it to bend and, in some cases, crack. When this failure occurs, the bottom of the engine is not stressed and the engine will damage other components in the engine bay. The 034Motorsport MQB Top Dogbone Mount Insert eliminates these bending forces, allowing the dogbone mount to perform as intended during these severe events.
A new stock bracket combined with this dogbone bracket insert greatly improves the feel and responsiveness of your drivetrain during sport riding. However, this combination of modifications, coupled with the design constraints of the Dogbone MQB mounting washers, has revealed that this applies forces to the anti-squat engine mount for which it was not designed.
The Lower Dogbone Mount Insert limits the compliance of the Lower Dogbone Mount Washer by filling large voids in the rubber portion. During normal, sporty driving, this reduction in compliance results in a more direct transient transmission response to acceleration and deceleration forces. The driver feels a more direct throttle response through the transmission without introducing a significant amount of NVH.
However, hard driveline shocks, such as runout-induced wheel hop, introduce additional forces that can damage the billet CNC spherical dogbone mounting arm. In these sport riding events, the movement of the lower rubber portion is restricted by the dogbone insert, but the upper puck is unconstrained and free to move forward.
This means that the entire rubber part runs forward at an angle towards the front of the car. Since the dog bone mounting arm is clamped within the washer assembly, rotation of the washer assembly generates a bending moment applied to the dog bone mounting arm for which there is no was not designed.
Our tests have shown that regardless of the design of the arm and the material used, the arm cannot be strong enough to withstand this bending moment. We tested arms made with 6061 aluminum, 7075 aluminum, and stainless steel. The results were all very similar. The dog bone mounting arm showed signs of bending with only two exhaustion-induced wheel hopping events. Complete dogbone arm failure has occurred in as few as four wheel hop events. We are confident that dogbone spherical mounts from other brands will experience similar failures.
These tests revealed the cause of the flex and our engineering team developed the Dogbone Top Mount Insert034MotorsportTo solve the problem. This insert slips into the forward void of the dog bone mounting top washer, limiting forward movement of the upper washer to match the limited forward movement of the lower washer with the lower insert installed.
The result is an upper and lower insert assembly that eliminates rotation inside the washer assembly during extreme transmission shocks and maintains the forces acting on the dogbone arm in the direction for which the arm was designed. Subsequent testing showed no signs of flex or strain in the Dogbone Mount Arm with the upper and lower Dogbone Mount Inserts installed. Watch the demo video below to see how the Dogbone Mount Washers move with just the bottom insert.
