Motor mounts basically connect the engine to the vehicle's frame. They’re rubber and metal pieces designed to dampen the engine's vibrations and keep it securely in place. They allow some movement, but prevent the engine from shifting around too much while you’re driving. A lot of them have fluid filled chambers these days to help with vibration control, it’s a little more sophisticated than it used to be. Think of them as the engine’s foundation. Everything from the engine’s power and shaking gets transferred through these mounts to the chassis. There’s usually three or four of them depending on the vehicle – one on either side, sometimes one in the rear, and often a transmission mount as well which works very similarly. They’re a critical part of the drivetrain, even though they don’t directly make the car move. Well, if these go bad, you’ll notice it. You’ll feel a lot more vibration in the steering wheel, the seats, and even the floorboards. It can feel like the whole car is shaking, especially when you’re idling or accelerating. A failing mount can also cause clunking noises when you shift gears or go over bumps. If it gets really bad, the engine can actually move enough to damage other parts, like the radiator or even crack the engine block itself. Ignoring a bad motor mount is just asking for bigger, more expensive problems down the road. They're a wear item, eventually they all go bad. You can find a good selection of them at places like Fixparts Online, and they're not usually too difficult to replace, although it can sometimes be a bit of a wrestling match getting to them. Built to last: Motor Mount (MPN 7E0898011B) comes with a 12-month warranty for your assurance!
