zetec engine mounts


Mk6 Si Ross

Recommended Posts

anyone removed one of these? How?! Taken about 8 bolts/nuts off and its still not loose! Bloody haynes manual hasn't got pics of the zetec ones in the zetec section which doesn't help and the write up says you only need to undo about 4 bolts! My arse. This is the one under the air box and under the brake servo(?) did the near side front one ok, that was 4 bolts, just can't work out this rear one

i get this wierd feeling when you back off the accelerator and when you put your foot down......also feels funny when under load going up hill for example. Am i looking in the right direction with engine mounts????

 

If you mean it drifts left or right as you put the power down and let off then it is probably the lower arms shot. Engine mounts let the engine hop when you put the power down and let the clutch up, so you'll get knocks and bangs.

no drifting left or right, its a undescribeable feeling really which doesn't help on here!!!!! I can't put it into words! its just like a hic-cup or burp really a funny feeling in the driving seat or movement ahead under the bonnet and possibly moving the gear stick too (will check this as i'm not 100%)

Are you sure it's not just misfiring and causing the engine to jolt?
