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

When do you suggest/ know to change engine mounts? Not tracking, and not a GT.... but it is manual. 10 years/ 100,000km? And would you go stiffer than factory mounts? Thanks

POST 2Original post

I've had Wevo semi-solid mounts in a few cars and would recommend. They transfer a bit of extra noise to the cabin but that actually enhances the driving experience.

POST 3Original post

I've got a set of brand new RS 964/993 engine mounts if you're looking.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Reggiegums, Thanks for the kind offer, but I think I will keep going on whats in the engine bay a bit longer. If I change I'll probably go something stiffer as JV911 suggests.

@hwy. Seem very quick to dismiss 964RS mounts that aren't exactly your standard model production line based rubber factory mounts. I would describe them equally as a semi solid mount compared to a semi solid wevo mount but come with a factory part number . Application wise,subject to correct ordering and placement of washers, they can work across 911models i.e and function just as well on a watercooled 996 turbo as they do on an aircooled 964rs. I would also recommend doing tranny mount at the same time.

POST 6Original post

I have 964 RS engine mounts in my 996 would highly recommend them - they are the same design as WEVO and RSS etc. although these are factory parts. I'd recommend a longer bolt if you're installing them on a 996. I have the details if you need them.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
