Tell me about my Transmission Mount Replacement
The transmission mount secures the transmission to the vehicle’s chassis and helps absorb vibrations from the drivetrain. It ensures the transmission stays in proper alignment with the engine and driveshaft. Over time, transmission mounts can wear out, crack, or break, causing clunking noises, vibrations, and drivetrain misalignment. Replacing a faulty transmission mount restores smooth operation and prevents further damage to the transmission or surrounding components.
What is a transmission mount replacement?
This service involves removing the worn or broken transmission mount and installing a new one. Since mounts are subject to constant stress, high-quality replacements are used to maintain durability and performance.
Why do you need a transmission mount replacement?
A damaged mount allows the transmission to shift or vibrate excessively. This can cause driveline misalignment, accelerate wear on other components, and make gear changes feel harsh or noisy. Replacing it protects both comfort and drivetrain longevity.
Common signs you need a transmission mount replacement
- Clunking or banging noises when shifting gears
- Excessive vibration inside the cabin
- Transmission movement felt when accelerating or braking
- Difficulty maintaining gear alignment
- Visible cracks or wear on the mount
What happens during a transmission mount replacement?
A mechanic will:
- Inspect all transmission and engine mounts for wear
- Support the transmission with a jack or hoist
- Remove the damaged transmission mount
- Install a new mount and torque it to manufacturer specifications
- Check driveline alignment
- Test drive to confirm smoother performance
How much does a transmission mount replacement cost?
Replacement typically costs $250–$600, depending on the vehicle make, model, and mount accessibility. Vehicles with multiple mounts may require additional replacements, increasing costs.
Is it unsafe to drive with a bad transmission mount?
Yes. A broken or worn mount can cause excessive movement, noise, and vibration, and may lead to transmission or driveshaft damage. For safety and to prevent costly repairs, the mount should be replaced as soon as possible.
