Racingline Lower Engine Mount Polo AW/ Audi A1 40 TFSI (GB)

RacingLine Uprated Lower Engine Mount – VW Polo GTI AW / Audi A1 40 TFSI

RacingLine Uprated Lower Engine Mount VWR150001 is an uprated lower engine mount, developed specifically for the VW Polo GTI AW and Audi A1 40 TFSI GB with the 2.0 TSI engine.

This upgrade is designed to improve the way power is transferred to the road. During dynamic driving, hard launches, or strong acceleration, the factory mount allows the engine and gearbox to move too much. This leads to a softer feel, loss of directness, and unpleasant front-end hop when traction is lost.

RacingLine solves this problem with a completely redesigned uprated mount that stabilizes the powertrain much more firmly. The result is a more direct feel when applying and releasing the throttle, cleaner power transfer, and significantly better control during aggressive driving.

Unlike ordinary inserts that merely fill the voids of the factory mount, RacingLine offers a complete replacement component. This means a stronger construction, better durability, and more precise operation under load.

The mount is crafted from a single piece of T6061 aluminum, precisely CNC machined for an excellent balance of strength and low weight. The internal polymer is carefully selected for hardness to reduce excessive engine movement without making the car too stiff or uncomfortable for daily use.

This is one of the most meaningful upgrades for the Polo GTI AW and Audi A1 40 TFSI, especially if the car has software tuning, is driven dynamically, or you simply want a tighter and more connected feel behind the wheel.

Key Benefits

• Uprated lower engine mount
• Developed for MQB A0 2.0 TSI models
• Suitable for EA888.3 and EA888.4 engines
• Reduces engine and gearbox movement under load
• Improves power transfer to the road
• Virtually eliminates front-end hop during hard launches and strong acceleration
• Improves throttle on/off feel
• Helps achieve tighter and more precise DSG shifts
• Suitable for standard and tuned cars
• Adds strength and protection for hard-driven vehicles
• Completely redesigned replacement component, not just an insert for the OEM mount
• Made from T6061 aluminum
• Precision CNC machining
• Polymer with carefully selected hardness for a balance of control and comfort
• Controlled levels of noise, vibration, and harshness in the cabin
• Hand-polished and gloss black anodized finish

Why this upgrade matters?

In a more powerful or dynamically driven car, the factory lower mount allows excessive movement of the entire powertrain. This feels like delayed reaction, soft behavior during load changes, and loss of stability during strong acceleration.

The RacingLine Uprated Lower Engine Mount fixes the engine and gearbox more stably, making the car more direct, sharper, and more predictable. This is particularly beneficial for launches, rapid acceleration, aggressive driving, and cars with software upgrades.
