Hey there folks...Seen quite a lot of posts about people with knocking noises when the clutch it used and when the engine shifts (lifting off the throttle and back on again).Well I would like to report that Nelly has just come back from my local garage complete with a new rear engine/gearbox mount and is no longer knocking... she's a dream to drive now without hearing her banging and knocking eveytime I lift up the clutch or when the engine is ticking over on a bit of a slope and hearing an awful rattling noise!So just thought I would share that to give a definitave answer about this particular knock... now to sort all the others out! lolPhil

Did you replace the whole mount?

I got one part of the mounting, think I needed the other half too. But I got a cooling issue to now!!!

Yeh from what I and the garage could tell it came complete so rather than trying to find just the rubber etc for the sake of £15 just replaced the complete mount.

By complete I mean just the back triangular shaped bit that contains the rubber mount.

I replaced the bottom triangular bit on mine and it's still knocking :confused:

Thing the mounting bit the trigular thing connects to also needs replacing.

Maybe worth checking the other mounts too... and also I have noticed that sometimes the gear linkage is knocking due to worn bushes (pending a bodge job as i'm not paying £70 for the complete unit!)

i got the bits for the bottom of the gear stick new rubber bush's from skoda were only few quid screwed the new ones on now the gear sticks tight + is that the problem whole gearbox mount? mine is nocking when ever i change gear :/
