Thats what shinee said anyway, havent spk to Fad
not going to argue this but it had an oil leak it was sorted altho it did drop a bit low once, i have constantly checkd my oil level to the point where ppl keep telling to stop it
could be a number of things, oil pump failure, oil pressure relief valve stuck all sorts just been a tad unlucky with it.

you need the rubber mounting that goes inside the bodywork mount, and the bodywork mount itself,
so 2 things missing, i think the bodywork mount is £80 if i remeber rightly
