034Motorsport Track Density Strut Mounts - VW Mk5, Mk6, B6 Passat/CC, Tiguan, Audi 8P A3, 8J TT
Sold individually, two required per vehicle!
034Motorsport's Density Line Mounts are the new standard in comfort and performance. Their mounts are designed with performance in mind, and manufactured from high-durometer rubber for increased performance and durability, without sacrificing comfort. Density Line Mounts are void-free and fluid-free, eliminating the slop associated with the factory mounts.
Track Density:
The Track Density Strut Mount Pair is manufactured from 75 durometer rubber, which is approximately 90% stiffer than stock. The steel strut mount bodies have also been redesigned to cope with the added stresses of spirited driving.
The result is a significant redultion in deflection of the strut mount, solid shifting, and virtually no wheel hop. These mounts will also eliminate the annoyoing "squeaking" sound often caused by the stock strut mounts when paired with coilover suspensions. Track Density Strut Mounts will only cause a minimal increase in noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) inside of the cabin. These mounts are a completely re-engineered performance solution, not just inserts for use with the factory mounts.

Technical Insight:
While the redesigned Volkswagen/Audi strut mount for the MkV/MkVI and 8J/8P chassis was a great improvement over the previous generations of strut mounts, they leave much to be desired when paired with perormance dampers or coilover suspensions.
Many owners experience a "squeaking" sound coming from the front strut mounts after installing performance dampers or coilover suspensions. The noise becomes noticeable when pulling out of driveways, going over sped bumps, or traveling at low speed over uneven surfaces.
This "squeaking" is caused by the low durometer rubber used in the factory strut mounts, which causes the steel center cup to move inside of the rubber mount. 034's Track Density Strut Mounts were designed to eliminate this annoying issue, and improve the performance of the vehicle's suspension.
