I need some advise on this one,Ive just replaced my top torque mount on c70 T5 Coupe when i start the engine and rev it the car is shaking its **** off ,vibrating through front end and steering wheel.This never accoured until replacement BUT!! when i take out the bolt that goes through the anchor and mount it goes away ?????? Is there something too tight about this part and the bush cannot absorb the vibration Its an OEM part excatly same as the one i took off bought from volvo

It is connected at the fire wall directly to the cabin so I could see it making more vibration. This would not be the case though if one or more other mounts were bad as well. Have the same square style mount on my car with no issues.

Double check the top black cover and make sure when you put it back on you did not pinch a wire to one of the coils.

Also I hate the mounts in the picture above. IMO they are like having bad mounts.

Tech why do ya want me to check to see if ive nipped a coil wire m8 ?.It's not missing engine is running fine .I'm sure these mountings volvo r giving me are wrong for my car i used to have a round 1 on and the bracket anchor was different also. The bracket that goes to the back on chassis seems to be the wrong type for the mounting pics below

My bad somehow I did not see the part about it going away when you remove the bolt.

The mount they gave you is an updated one. The bracket going to the firewall is the correct one. The 3 picture you have posted is the setup for the newer cars where the mount bracket is part of a strut brace setup.

Like I also said above I have the square mount setup because they have way to much play brand new.
