does anybody know if tl and tl-s take the same motor mounts and do you know the part number also does anybody have a part diagram of where all the parts are on the tl

so how many motor mounts are there 3 or 4 and also should i replace my trans mounts or would they have been replaced when i got a new trans through warranty

 

Motor has 3 front, rear and side. 2 Transmission mounts I am pretty sure. And no I don't think they usually replace them when they put in a new trans at least they did not replace mine.

 

they dont replace parts that aren't broken- no justification
If they found the front mount to be bad at trans replacement time, they do it then- 20 minutes vs 2 hours labor

Look underneath the front and rear mounts for oil leakage- they are expensive $120+ for the front and rear- the others are about 50 each iirc
The others, check with prybar or load test with engine
Dont replace parts that are good~

 

Its usually the front goes bad from dealing with the engine torque loads.
Hard to tell its broken-- so you keep driving and the right side mount now takes extra load from the front- leading to its demise

 

so what parts would i be buying would i need to buy any brackets or bolting or just the mounting would i be buying 6,7,34 on the diagram

 

i know my mounts are bad i'm not sure about fluid leaking but i see cracking in the side mount my car jerks when i put it in gear when i'm driving and it goes into 3rd or 4th it jumps so i'm guessing thats they all need replacement and i'm after doining research and help from this forum i have been told that the mounts can be bad after 40-50k

 

yes- after 50 usually the front and right side
Check all of them carefully before randomly replacing all, pretty odd to need all 5

 

My car is at about 75k I was just thinking might as well replace the 3 how do the transmission mounts operate should I replace them as well or just the 3 I wouldn't won't to buy the 2 or 3 and have to pay extra labor all over again just for 1 extra mount 5k later also does anybody know how many hours it takes

 

All you will most likely need is the front and the passenger side mount.

 

thanks i'll see about getting all three just to get it out the way thanks for all your help

 

Hi All :

Can anybody provide the part numbers for the front and passenger side engine mounts ?

Thanks in advance.

Depends on what year you have. Fill in the info and then Look at the link under "Engine Mount"

will the front engine mounts leak onto the ground?
i know i need a passenger side mount but i dont have any leaks under my car.
also do you need an engine support to replace just the side mount?

 

Some times they leave spots. Often they will leak out and you wont know it.

You dont need a support of any kind. A floor jack is all thats needed for the front and rear ones

 

okay thank you.
