I replaced the OEM dog bone with a CFM lower engine torque mount (Street). The smaller rubber bushing on the OEM mount was pretty much FUBAR. The symptoms I was getting was an engine vibration at idle that could be felt inside the car. I still have some vibration and maybe it is just from the poly bushings in the CFM mount.
Checking things over, I removed the plastic cap on the passenger side motor mount and pressed down on the rubber bladder. There is still some gel in the mount that moves around when I press on the covering but it is not totally full. Should there be total resistance from pressing on the bladder (should the bladder be totally filled with gel?) or am I okay with what I have? I don't see any visible evidence of leaks.
I have 173K+ on the stock mounts so it is probably the time to replace the remaining two mounts.
TIA
