Key Features & Benefits

These things basically hold your engine and transmission in place. They connect the engine/transmission assembly to the vehicle’s frame. But it’s not a solid connection – they’re designed with rubber or fluid – filled cores. That allows for some movement and dampens vibrations. They absorb the engine’s shaking, so it doesn't rattle everything else apart and doesn’t transfer all that noise and vibration into the cabin of the car. Think of them as the bridge between the engine’s power and the car’s stability. Everything the engine does, all that shaking and twisting, gets transferred through these mounts to the chassis. They keep the engine from literally walking around under the hood, and they maintain proper engine alignment. They're really critical for smooth driving and handling. You'll find several of them, usually three or four, each supporting a different part of the engine/transmission.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If one of these goes bad, you’ll notice if you rev the engine a little – things will shake more than they should. It might feel like the whole car is vibrating. You could also hear clunking noises when shifting gears or going over bumps. A really bad mount can even cause other parts, like your exhaust system, to get damaged from the extra movement. It's preventative maintenance, really. You can find replacements pretty easily, Fixparts Online has a good selection, and it’s usually a relatively straightforward repair before the shaking gets really bad and causes other problems. They don’t last forever, the rubber degrades over time from heat, oil, and just general wear and tear.
