Hope I'm not too late - but if your concern is reducing noise, then you do not want to be messing with that.  The sole purpose of the 'bladder' is simply to act as a noise damper.  The viscous fluid inside it will be 'harmonically tuned' to cancel out noises (and their respective vibrations) at a specific frequency.  So if you mess with the contents of the bladder, you may well end up with MORE noise.

QD MBE:
Not done anything about it yet,  a touch more noise would be acceptable, not not as mucha s the BSH gave.

a happy medium would be ok.  However since the new diff was fitted, all is well, and i am content for now.

So have you made any progress on this?  Still have the OEM mounts?  Don't suppose you took a careful look at the state of the rubber to see for any degridation?  Or compare them side by side with brand new OEMs?

This very issue (engine mounts) is sommat I'm now working on.  Got a set of new OEMs and will be 'modifying' them with some high grade RTV silicone - just trying to work out how much of the void to fill . . . .  But with the silicone modified OEMs, noise increase should be minimal, and any increase should (definately / hopefully  :chicken:) be on the same harmonic frequency.
