[s-cars] Exhaust banging - APR snub mount

[Robert Pastore]

OK, so I got tired of my stromung cat hitting my trans under hard
acceleration, and now I have the APR snub mount in hand.

Any BTDT with installation?  Is it press fit or not?   How long should the
install take?


Thanks in advance.
Bob

Jim,
Bad motor/tranny mounts are probably the root of this problem. A
special front (snub) motor mount in urethane is obtainable from APR
(they dont know it works for s4 but it does) is very helpful in
controlling wear on all other mounts. I replaced all mounts including
snub and the car is way tight and I get no probs. even w/big power.
Have the mounts checked out, and if you can afford replace all.
