Car shakes after new engine mount?
Car shakes after new engine mount?
I had a shop change out one of my engine mounts. The problem was severly worse after they were done, I thought this would correct itself but did not after a few days so I took it back. They took a look at it and may have tightened/loosened the correct torque specs or something because it was just fine for about 3 months. We then moved and I had my car on a flatbed transport and I had issues getting the car on/off since it was so low. Now the severe reverb from the exhaust and shaking is back. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can self remedy/check this? Car is 2004 TSX.
Were they OEM mounts that were replaced? If not... you likely got aftermarket ones that are as hard as bricks.
I made the mistake of getting "Anchor" brand, which even had an OEM part number stamped in the rubber. The car was vibrating worse at idle than when I had the Ingalls 'stiffy' dampener and an OEM front and rear engine mount!

If you want to keep the comfort of the stock car, we've tried it, you need OEM mounts or high quality aftermarket parts - if the front mount costs less than 100 bucks somewhere you're not buying a good mount.
