How To Replace Worn Engine Mount and Transmission Mount

Worn motor mounts, or engine mounts can cause noise, vibration, or harshness. Today we are replacing the engine mount and transmission mount with "performance mounts" The goal of the engine mount replacement is to reduce engine movement, but not create any engine vibration. I will be using a higher durometer of rubber rather than polyurethane mounts.

The track density mounts aren’t bad in the VR6. 034 will tell you this as well since it’s balanced much better than the 4 cyl.

I have replaced many engine mounts on a variety of cars. Cheap mounts never last, and I have even encountered ones that failed while still wrapped up in the original package. Sometimes they don't line up correctly because they are built to some pretty pathetic tolerances. If you ever need to replace engine mounts on a car, no matter what car you own, use only OEM, OES, or purpose built racing mounts. The money you might save on cheap mounts is not worth the extra labor you will be spending on those mounts. The advice for this special mount is great. I usually worked on American and Japanese cars, and they have far fewer quirks with repairs. This is why I recommend Honda and Toyota to people who aren't car enthusiasts. I'm willing to accept the extra costs of owning a German car since I do everything myself, however, I intend to buy an Evo X. There will never be another Mitsubishi Evo, so I never have to think "Damn, I wish I could afford the newest variant" every 3 years or so. This is why I will take an Evo X over a Subaru rally car or VW Golf R.

Question so the 13mm bolt that goes on the back side of the transmission to the frame. So i went to replace the mounts on a mk4 gti I recently bought. And the 13mm hole was fallen thru, the previous owner drilled a hole from the bottom to be able to feed a bolt up to put a bolt on it. It's there anyway I can fix this?

@FunnymanAintAfrican 2 года назад

Hi Charles, awesome video. I watched it all the way through multiple times over to replace the mounts on my 2003 VW Jetta 1.8T Wagon. I managed to get all the mounts in without issue for the most part. However, the transmission mount in the engine bay was askew by 4mm. I have a subtle, consistent vibration when I take off from a stop that disappears around 2500RPM. I’m wondering if this could be related to the mount being off-center? Awesome videos, I enjoy watching!

@FunnymanAintAfrican 2 года назад

They are also Corteco mounts. Probably doesn’t matter but figured I’d throw that in there

@nokoolaid 5 лет назад

And why are they so expensive...I looked up the price for my Passat...Wow.

@HumbleMechanic 5 лет назад

@Albertotron 5 лет назад

Worth the price in my opinion. Bought some for my A4 B6 a couple years back and have been impressed. They are stiff but not stiff enough that it increases NVH.

@Uberragen21 5 лет назад

It's cheaper to buy the good quality engine mounts and install yourself than have a VW stealership do the work. The markup on the OEM mounts alone would cost you more.

@met9009 5 лет назад

I always like watching your videos makes me want to get back out and work on my projects. :) A bit of a side note I find interesting and maybe you will too, typical oems for cheapness including parts manufacturers use cheap rubber materials with a typical tuned mass system to try and reduce vibrations. Its the wrong material for the job, the are materials like some engineered urethanes that have purpose built characteristic of absorbing vibrational energy and turning it into heat. Yes rubber does this some but kinda poor it transfers the energy into the mount and they add stiffness to the mount to try and hold the engine in place better for race applications. These above engineered materials can be pretty stiff and yet transfer verry little vibration through. It sucks that aftermarket urethane mount manufacturers havn't yet taken advantage of these materials.

Can these mounts be the issue if my 07 jetta vibrates/grinds a lot while rolling(I don't have to be in a gear to make it happen) but when I'm not moving there is no vibration/grind. You can feel it a lot from 0-30 and then very prominently at 60mph at 2500rpms only. Any less then 60 or any more and it fades away in 1 or 2 mph. 3 shops can't diagnose it even With driving it.

@the_hat_on_the_cat4897 4 месяца назад

My personal completely unprofessional opinion is yes . I’d do the dog bone first .

@olenaerhardt7725 4 месяца назад

Thank you for the replay and attention to my question. You are absolutely right. What I did, I released the front part of that Dog Bone, removed front bolt. Then replaced the top Upper mount (I moved it around w/Dowel to put back a new one, it moved very easy, bcs that bottom Bone was released). Then, when I torqued the top Mount, I removed completely and replaced the Dog Bone for a new. To put the rare bolt in place you need to pry the Bone to the rare via a hole and against the Oil Pan, if smb needs it. Thank you again.

@@the_hat_on_the_cat4897 I disconnected though, the engine was moving very easily after that (I used Dowel) to set it for the bolts to be attached. Maybe it would move without that disconnection, but I replaced that Dog Bone as well. There will be problem to put it back, unless you use the pry bar via the hole and pressing at the oil pan, and moving the Bone backward for the rear bolt to fit. Otherwise easy. If someone needs.

Basically the car makes a clunking noise only in reverse drive and sometimes neutral otherwise it drives perfectly fine changes gears perfect doesn’t slip or mis gears …. Do you think it could be driveshaft issue? Because once its into reverse or drive and sometimes in park … its fine and in neutral it makes the noise for literally 5-10 seconds max then goes back too normal bro … could it be damaged driveshaft causing that and the fault code?? I did have a error code saying unexpected gear disengagement but since cleared that hasnt come back up…. What do u think is the issue????

I have been noticing that my R32 has a pretty noticeable vibration in the car when in cold start at the higher RPM's, but when it settles into the normal 700-800 RPM range it goes away. Engine mounts or something else? If I supplied the parts to a dealer or local shop, whats the typical book time for installing mounts? Thanks in advance. Also, I am jealous as my friend Chrissy met you in person (and made you some baked goods). :)

I ask because while refreshing my mounts I managed to snap the rear triangle tab in half and there isn't enough left to get the bolt snugged back down. My thoughts are that this is more of a locating bolt/tab and it doesn't take any real weight - am I ok leaving this bolt out? Thanks in advance!

My 18 Golf Sportwagen, purchased new. Now has 45K mi. Starting around 30K, I would get a loud clang/bang when shifting from P to D or P to R. Rarely happened then. VW says it’s common and inherent to the design. Now, it happens 1 in 20 times after starting and shifting from P to D or P to R. It’s loud, the car jerks and shift points are altered for a short while. Then it’s all okay until it happens again. VW says it’s normal w all their vehicles. When parking, I have always placed the car in N, foot on brake, set Emergency brake, release foot brake and place in P. Nothing helps, it happens more frequently now. This just can’t be right. Especially white clients/passengers, embarrassing. I have plenty of warranty but I want it fixed. Otherwise, I love the car, it rocks. Your input would be respected and valued. Thanks! Steve

Oh dang. That’s a solid idea. For this job you’re not working that close to anything like that

Fun fact, our holden commodore’s here in Australia, if they have worn engine mounts, the sump sits on the subframe and actually runs through the sump if left too long.

Hey I replaced all 3 mounts in my 2001 golf. Old ones were original. I used new stretch bolts n torqued them to spec. I took note of the proper position of them and made sure to put all bolts in by hand till they were seated. I now have a slight vibration in my steering wheel at idle n when I drive. Should I mess with them or leave as is. I don’t wanna loosed the new bolts to re adjust. Thx in advance

How did you fix the issue? I'm having a similar issue, new vibration appeared after replacing all mounts 😕

@pujo28 Год назад

@@bobomomo3764 Hey I still have the vibration. Can’t say if it has gotten better. Maybe a little if any. I wouldn’t try and adjust anything since I bought new stretch or torque to yield bolts. Once u loosen then your “ supposed” to replace them. Since it’s a 21 yr old work car I’m fine with the vibration. It’s been 5 months. Maybe more time needs to pass and they’ll break in? A mechanic said give it a few thousand miles which have passed to time will tell
