Default What to do.... Timing Belt time!

OK, so it's time to replace the timing belt on my 2000 B5 tqm. Since I'm doing the belt, I'm also doing the snub (replacing with an APR) mount. I have 140K, last TB done at 85K. Should I replace the other engine mounts? I was thinking of doing that, then skipping the tranny mounts, since it's bolted to the engine- I could always urethane them, if it's worth it. Will this make a performance difference, or is it just a waste of resources?

Thanks!

I would leave the motor mounts until they leak.

Default Apikol snub. Shifting is a little better. Nothing much else different.

the APR right up is really good, but you are going to already be in there.
