[alfa] 164 motor mount torque rod



Hi Folks,

Anyone know how to eliminate a pesky rocking motor syndrome on the 164?

I've replaced the rear and torque rod mounts to no avail. I've tried different adjustments on the torque rod via the threaded preload rod. I've tried neutral and a preload (in direction of engine movement under acceleration) setting and the preload helped for a short while, but it still jerks annoyingly on throttle lift off.

The other 2 mounts seem to be in good shape, and the idle vibration is "normal".

I have the CarDisc manual and there isn't info on the torque rod adjustment, etc.

Thanks to any and all,
Gary
