Tell me about my Engine Mount Replacement
Engine mounts secure your engine to the chassis while absorbing vibrations and movement. They keep the engine stable under acceleration, braking, and cornering, while also isolating noise and vibration from the cabin. Over time, mounts wear out, crack, or collapse, leading to excess vibration and stress on the drivetrain. Replacing faulty engine mounts restores comfort and prevents further damage.
What is an engine mount replacement?
This service involves removing worn or broken engine mounts and installing new ones. The engine is supported during the process to ensure proper alignment and stability before the new mounts are bolted in place.
Why do you need an engine mount replacement?
Worn mounts can no longer absorb vibrations effectively, causing the engine to shake excessively. This increases noise inside the cabin, puts stress on other components, and may eventually cause drivetrain misalignment or damage.
Common signs you need an engine mount replacement
- Excessive engine vibration felt inside the cabin
- Clunking or banging noises when accelerating, braking, or shifting gears
- Engine movement visible when revving or shifting
- Cracked, collapsed, or leaking hydraulic engine mounts
- Increased wear on exhaust or drivetrain components
What happens during an engine mount replacement?
A mechanic will:
- Inspect all engine and transmission mounts for wear
- Support the engine safely with a hoist or jack
- Unbolt and remove the worn mount(s)
- Install new engine mounts with proper alignment
- Tighten all bolts to manufacturer specifications
- Test drive the vehicle to confirm reduced vibration
How much does an engine mount replacement cost?
Engine mount replacement typically costs $300–$800 for one mount, depending on the vehicle and mount type. Replacing multiple mounts at once can cost $800–$1,500+, especially on larger or more complex vehicles.
Is it unsafe to drive with a bad engine mount?
Yes. While you may still be able to drive, bad mounts cause excess vibration, clunking, and stress on the drivetrain. In severe cases, the engine can shift position, leading to damage or unsafe handling. Replacement should not be delayed.
