406 rear lower engine mount bush position.

Post by Falconar12 »

Hello all. I have got to change my rear lower engine mount bush on my 406 2.0 HDI but don't know which way round to fit it.
I really would prefer to get it right first time so if any kind gent can guide me I would really appreciate it.

It should be the same way round as the original one - or have you already removed it? If so let me know and I will look at mine.

Yes Peter It has already been removed unforunately. There is a solid piece going across and a recess section opposite. Dont't know whether the solid piece is vertical or horizontal when fitted.
