Renault Clio Mk2 - Powerflex Twisted Dogbone Engine Mount - 2.0 RS-172 / RS-182 (Phase 2)
The Powerflex dogbone mounts replace the original rubber bushes of the Renault Clio dogbone. Its relatively simple to fit and stops the engine rocking under acceleration and braking. This Powerflex engine mount is available in both Purple and black compounds. Due to the vibration through the chassis after fitting we tend to say only use the Powerflex Black compound for trailered track cars; unless you like that sort of thing! This works very well when combined with the Powerflex Upper Engine Mount Insert.
To fit the Powerflex PFF60-211K dogbone mount you need a few basic tools. A stanley knife to cut out the original rubber mounts, a hammer to remove the metal bush housing and some sandpaper to clean off any sharp edges before hand fitting the new Powerflex bush. Its easiest when fitted in a vice to hold the dogbone in place.
Improved stability when accelerating and cornering
Increased safety
Greater cost-effectiveness vs oe rubber mounts
No special tools are needed
These Powerflex bushes improve your cars' stability when accelerating and cornering by controlling the amount of unwanted movement of the engine. Correctly formulated polyurethane bushes from Powerflex are as good if not better at noise, vibration and harshness suppression when compared to the O/E rubber mounts.
Product came next day which was made even better by the fact that Kam racing do no charge for delivery on Power flex products.
Didn't take long to remove old bushes fit Powerflex inserts. Helped to stiffed up the engine alongside the upper engine mount inserts. These bushes also improved the gearshift feel and engine response.
Will definitely use Kam racing for other parts for my 182! (Posted on 13 September 2020)
It’s quite hard to get the old bushes out, but what a difference the new ones make. Tightened everything up and removed and gearbox movement under braking and accelerating (Posted on 17 January 2018)
