Hey guys, got my cd5 serviced recently (155k's) and have been informed that it has a 'worn rear engine mount causing noise.' when i asked the mechanic what exactly this involved i was told that it can cause the engine to move by as much as an inch. now this didnt sound great to me so i inquired as to whether it was a serious issue that needed to be addressed immediately and was informed that although it was/is contributing to the roughness ive been experiencing with the gearbox (5sp manual), 'the engine wont fall out.' somehow i didnt find this entirely reassuring so just wondering if i can get a bit more info about if letting it go for the time being can cause any short/long term issues. i have been quoted $429 to fix it.
thanks :)
