As the title says, when I switch my engine off the car now shakes (only just started today)

The engine itself you can move quite a lot by hand and also revving it in stationary the engine has a hell of a lot of movement.

My guess is its some sort of mount/bush at fault but I am no mechanic! The car runs fine when driving get the odd kangaroo effect sometimes setting off in first (but generally put that down to me)

I have searched this and it does throw up what my first thoughts were and are of it being mount/bush related, but I'm taking it to the dealer where I purchased it from, any advice on what to tell them or what to say (I don't want to be fobbed off)

Anti shudder valve if it's a BLT?

ASZ

have you changed the dogbone mount .... you can get a bush kit from powerflex (awesomeal on here will give you a good price) or you could get a genuine one ( which are pretty poor)

 

also if it is an asz with an egr delete .... that removes the anti shudder valve ... not sure on its effect though 

Would a knackered dual mass affect this?

Try with clutch in/out and see?

All is standard

Also was thinking of just getting the kit but part of me thinks if its not that then I need to spend on something else =

It's booked in anyway

Mine was like this and thought the DMF was on its way out, replaced the dogbone mount for a powerflex item, problem solved, no engine movement or anything now it's much better.

New symptom -

When pressing clutch down changing gear it now makes a slight squeak

Says for 2008 - onwards

Yeh I noticed that when I ordered it but I checked the powerflex website for the part number and it is the correct one.

My engine rocks a fair bit when starting/turning off so I think I might have to invest in one of these. I just don't want to regret it if it causes vibration through the cabin at idle.

Awesome gti gave me an 'awesome' price that I can't refuse put it that way

You won't regret it, if I'm right in saying it should last longer than original

No vibrations

Well managed to fit it today so far engine is smoother when starting/turning off. there is a tiny bit more vibration on idle but it really is minor.

Can't wait to feel the difference when driving spiritedly.
