Just to clarify, does the standard GTI have a DMF?

Yes, same

I remember reading a huge thread on an american site and they all had it too, they fixed it by removing the DMF and fitting a solid item, as said in is thread it's worth fitting the engine mount insert

Ok, where's it located?

Is it in the gearbox? Or is it in the gearbox to subframe mount?

Does the OE insert fall out? Press out, etc.

Sorry just trying to get a heads up on it.

Its in the subframe, at the rear of the lower gearbox mount, the insert firms the std bush up, so you remove the exixting bolt, push the insert in and fit new bolt :happy2:

if you do a search I'm sure there's plenty of pics
