I was going to suggest diesel, i've been looking into this myself as i had a small dent in the centre of the bonnet so i replaced engine and gearbox mounts for brand new O.E parts and now have dents all over it let us know if you go further with this mate.

I fitted vibratechnic mounts after having alot of trouble with standard mounts pulling apart and destroying wheel bearings. Slthough there is some rattle which is to be expected I dont beleive that it bad at all... ive not looked back since fitting them and would def advise others to fit them
