Motor mounts for B9 A5

Audi Models
1

I have a 2018 A5. The OE mounts are just starting to leak fluid. I looked at the OE parts catalog on audioem.com and it appears the left one (4m0199371fc) is discontinued. I know I need to replace them together and I’d like a matched set. FCP has Lemforder for the left with Lemforder right on BO. FCP also has a kit from 034 but it appears more sport focused. I’m looking for suggestions on brands with a similar NVH characteristics to my OEM mounts or a location to buy both sides.

I have the softer 034 mounts in my B7 A4 and they don’t seem to have any more vibration than the originals. I have the stiffer mounts in my B5 track car and you definitely don’t want those on a daily driver unless a bunch of vibration is okay.

Thanks for the input! So, the softer ones are more like OEM? Just trying to figure out what to go for.

Yeah, that’s spot on. The softer ones are a good balance, especially for daily driving.

Thanks for the site suggestion. They have just the 034 street. Would an OEM right with a Lemforder left work or should I keep looking for a matched pair?

Lemforder makes the mounts sold by Audi, so if you have a Lemforder and an Audi mount, you essentially have two Lemforder mounts. It’s very possible the Audi logo is ground off the Lemforder branded mount but still visible.

I broke so many Audi motor mounts that I recommend getting the 034 street mounts. I put the 034 street mounts, their front snubber and transmission mount in my old B7 and never felt it was harsh or uncomfortable just felt more solid.

That sounds promising. Did you notice any difference in handling or comfort?

Not really, it just felt more solid. I didn’t break anymore mounts before I traded the car a few years later.

So, if I go with the 034 mounts, will it really be fine for daily driving? Just trying to avoid harsh vibes.

Absolutely, they’re designed for a balance between sport and comfort. You should be good!

I appreciate all the advice. Seems like I might lean towards the Lemforder or the 034 street mounts for sure. Thanks, everyone!
