I thought I jacked something up, but measurements from the carrier suggests the engine is level, it's the tips that need adjusting...I never got around to it!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello, Just replaced my engine mounts. Exhaust tips a little low and car seemed to be clunking over bumps more than it should. I can honestly say that that was the best $140 I spent on engine mounts. It was a pretty easy DIY but even if you have your local garage do it you will not be sorry. Car even drives much nicer at 70mph as so much less engine vibration being transmitted to cabin.

POST 3Original post

Quotes source post: 13831606

By 3 you mean 2 engine mounts and 1 transmission mount?

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I only replaced engine mounts. Rein brand.

POST 5Original post

I've been on the hunt as mine need replacing. $140 for legit mounts? Off to the google...

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I found them on amazon. $59.99 each.

POST 8Original post

Do share the link or source, the cheapest I could find the Rein brand one were $75 a piece. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/por...11-23043014589 $75.70 free S/H http://www.autohausaz.com/search/pro...rchbutton.y=12 $75.49 free S/H https://importecautoparts.com/parts/...5%20049%2008/3 $75.86

POST 9Original post

Yup - my research returned the same results, I bought mine from autohausaz a couple weeks ago, same price. Every on Amazon was double the price or non-oem.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I checked rock auto.com. rein mount was like $108. I searched the part number and found it on Amazon.com for 59.99 free shipping. (Prime member).

POST 12Original post

Here is the link folks... Price is $62.42, item is listed under the AVE0382P part number not the Porsche 99337504908. Get them while they last. Thanks USNA1970 https://www.amazon.com/Rein-Automoti...words=AVE0382P

Nice work! Are your tips even? After installing my passenger is hanging lower than drivers.

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 13834310

The tips are pretty close to being even. They can be adjusted so if you replaced both mounts just make sure the carrier looks level. If it is, then try to adjust tips.

POST 17Original post

I'm interested if anyone has or could take a measurement on a good pair of mounts? I was looking at mine today, and seems a good measurement could be taken from the underside of the chassis.

POST 18Original post

My exhaust tips are sagging so I can measure pre/post after putting these on.

POST 19Original post

Thanks Tony! I'm figuring an actual measurement at the mount is more accurate than "sagging" tips.

POST 20Original post

My tips were just barley sagging, I swapped out the motor mounts for the wevo's now the passenger side hangs lower than the drivers. I thought I jacked something up, but measurements from the carrier suggests the engine is level, it's the tips that need adjusting...I never got around to it!

POST 21Original post

You don't happen to have those measurement do you m3?

POST 22Original post

Not off hand, I run a plum line from both sides(measure the plum line both sides) of the motor plate and made sure the plate was level. The engine measured perfectly level. The drivers side tip tucked up nice after the new mounts, the passenger side however is a tad lower. Not by much, but it drives me nuts. I just haven't got around to correcting it.

POST 23Original post

Thanks m3, maybe someone has taken a measurement. It would seem a measure engine carrier to chassis, would a more accurate way to measure wear on a mount.

POST 24Original post

Just replaced mine. Everything is better. Shifting is easier and engine much smoother.

POST 25Original post

What's the average life expectancy of these mounts? Trying to keep track of the price of admission...

POST 26Original post

Bill, I just looked at an 04 C4S with only 40k miles and the tips were already sagging. Seems like 7-8 yrs is the life expectancy.

POST 27Original post

Quotes source post: 13836804

Did the vehicle have the mounts replaced in 2008 or am I missing something?

POST 28Original post

Quotes source post: 13836321

This will be impressive if it plays out for me; the only issue I have shifting with 13yo engine mounts is near freezing temp warm up shifting. It just needs to be nursed while the car is warming.

POST 29Original post

Quotes source post: 13836915

Chances are the mounts didn't just fail yesterday. It was a guesstimate.

POST 30Original post

Just ordered a set with some Xmas funds. Not sure if mine are sagging but know that they have never been replaced so at 12 years, guess its time (can't hurt).

POST 31Original post

Quotes source post: 13836960

Engine mounts don't seem to be a regular maintenance item as they should be. My car had the original mounts @ 105k, they were brittle and leaking.

POST 32Original post

Quotes source post: 13836960

Agreed however the way you wrote your response would suggest otherwise.

POST 33Original post

Quotes source post: 13836923

I had new engine mounts plus FF trans mount insert a few weeks ago. Shifting is now beautifully smooth when warm, and the gear lever springs back to the centre much more readily than it used to. But it does still need gentle persuasion into gear when cold.
