As the Powerflex debacle continues, can anyone recommend another alternative?

I'm not sure if the Powerflex unit on the Leon is failing now and will have a closer look at it this weekend (knocking).

Assuming a worse case scenario.

Any ideas would be appreciated - not looking forward to the vibes from running in again

Here's my review of the THS one from my build thread...

Looks the same as OEM huh, in fact I am pretty sure that it is but with a stiffer bush and what a difference it makes on the road. Wheel hop & spin are greatly reduced, in most case to nothing on a dry day like today, that's even with tyres that need changing. The power goes down smoothly and quickly and the cars acceleration really has some bite to it. There is less delay between the transmission and wheels so power feels instant and there is no cabin vibration what so ever, in fact i'd say that there was less compared with the OEM one. Gear changes now feel smoother with less jerking and all in all, the car feels alot tighter, I would recommend this to anyone!

I can only agree with JamJay. Great piece of kit.

I also recommend the THS.

Cheers all.

Had a look on their site and will hopefully give em a damn good inspection this weekend.

Multiple recommendations is more than good enough for me.

If it needs replacing than THS it is.

THS offer discount if you email them and mention that you are a member on here.

my car wheelspins too much so ill be going for one of these, Would you get this and then powerflex the rest of the front end?

 

[JamJay]

No Bobby, I'd go for THS for all engine mounts. Powerflex are a very stuff polybush which are effective but cause alot of cabin vibration.

You're already keen to see my car with DP and Sports Cat at AMD so if you aren't planning to buy one of these before then, I can take you for a spin.

sounds like a deal!
