New Product PFF85-704 Engine Mount Insert fits vehicles from the middle of 2008 in the VAG group using the PQ35 platform. The insert fills the voids of the original bushes so limiting engine movement, improvements include more effective power delivery to the wheels and crisper more defined gear changes, along with less stress for the exhaust down pipe. VAG changed the design of the voiding around the middle of 2008 for earlier cars our insert PFF85-504 will fit, please check the diagram to select the correct insert. We have made the insert in 3 versions :- PFF85-704 made in Yellow Shore A 70 and is suitable for fast road applications. PFF85-704R made in Red Shore A 65, more suitable for diesel engines where using the fast road material can cause too much NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness). PFF85-704P made in Purple Shore A 80 these are suitable for higher powered engines, track and competition cars, NVH will be more noticeable as the material is stiffer but will allow less movement. Vehicles which use PFF85-704 Audi A3 MK2 8P (2003-) Audi S3 MK2 8P (2006-) Audi TT MK2 8J (2007-) Seat Altea 5P (2004-) Seat Leon Mk2 1P (2005-) Seat Toledo Mk3 5P (2004-) Skoda Octavia Mk2 1Z (2004-) Volkswagen Eos 1F (2006-) Volkswagen Golf Mk5 1K inc.

| Range Updated Caterham Seven We have recently updated our applications for the Caterham range of Sevens including DeDion with Watts linkage, DeDion without Watts linkage and the CSR model. The bushes that we have designed for this unique vehicle are, in themselves, unique. This car is one of the lightest and finest handling cars on the planet, with many owners spending thousands on spring/damper units trying to achieve perfect handling. However we have always been concerned that whilst the dampers themselves feature 21st century technology the bushes are from a different era. The design of the factory bushes are an inner and outer steel tube with bonded rubber acting as the isolator. The problems that arise from this design are two-fold. The rubber bond breaks allowing the centre of the bush to float fore and aft, however if the bush is in good condition it acts like a spring. Multiply that spring effect by four on each corner and the fact that the spring rate changes as the bush gets older means that the damper does not have total control of the suspension. Of course a spherical joint is the precision answer but not acceptable for the road. This is why Powerflex have developed the frictionless bushes for this car. With the precision of a spherical and the performance of polyurethane. The bushes feature a frictionless PTFE lined bearing and polyurethane outer which doubles as a weather seal and vibration damper. All bearing parts are manufactured in stainless steel/PTFE and like all of our products carry a life time warranty. |

New Release BMW Mini Generation 2 PFF5-201 Front Wishbone Rear Bush PFF5-206 Lower Engine Mount Small Bush PFF5-207 Lower Engine Mount Large Bush Insert PFR5-115 Rear Shock Top Mounting Bush When the BMW Mini updated to the generation most of the suspension components were carried over. There are only very minor changes to the front lower arm rear bush. We have also produced a new bush and inserts for the lower engine mount. A common problem with both the Generation 1 and 2 Mini is a knocking from the rear caused by the standard upper shock absorber bush failing, PFR5-115 is a polyurethane replacement which gives longer life as well as a more positive location. |

| Powerflex Exhaust Mounts Working in conjunction with our raw material supplier we have formulated an innovative new material, which after months of testing, has proven to be ideal for Powerflex high temperature exhaust mountings. The range is the same The design is the same The price is the same The performance is improved The colour is new Powerflex Exhaust mountings have been developed to give between 25 and 30% less movement under load. This is especially useful for modified or competition vehicles with aftermarket exhaust systems. We describe these as universal mounts which are not designed for any specific vehicles. We have found that it is almost impossible to state that a particular aftermarket exhaust when fitted to a particular vehicle will require a specific mount. Therefore we list dimensions and use images to help you choose the ideal mount for your application. |
