just picked up the car and they told me i have a bad front and right front motor mount. PLEASE HELP i dont know whre to get them or what to do.

 

Pre-order them from an Autozone near you... It takes 1-3 days for delivery.. mine came the next morning from when I ordered it. The front should cost no more than $110 and the side, no more than $40. Just changed my front mount a week ago.

 

i paid 70.00 for the front mount on http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/...catdisplay.jsp shipping is extra, but can't beat the price even with shipping, side mount is 40.00.

 

Get new ones and replace them is what i would do. There are a bunch of threads explaining how to replace them. Use sbuswells link. I buy all my stuff thru them. Very fast with shipping as well

 

sbuswells, how did you get it for $70? I went to the site and price is $91.77.

 

i have a 99 tl. maybe 00-03 are more expensive. i paid 70.00 2 1/2 wks ago though.

 

Yes, the 99s are different from the 00+ and are also cheaper than teh 00+

 

well imma go ahead and order them thanks for the opinions and what sucks is that i paid the 100 dollars but they only told me this, they didnot check why my srs lights on or why my cars always making a ticking noise and now they say i have to pay 100 again . Is there a diy on this? i dont wnat to pay the damn dealers 650 to do it.

 

Sorry this is probably a stupid question but is the side mount the one that kind of looks like a wheel? And from what I have been reading in a few threads usually just the side and front need to be replaced is that correct? And just out of curiosity are there aftermarket mounts that might be a bit stronger that can be used in place of OEM or would it just be a waste of money? After I fed a can of seafoam though my intake, when I turned the engine off the engine kept going for a minute or two and was jumping up and down quite a bit. Does that mean my front and maybe side are probably bad?

 

Not real good DIYs but the instructions are out there, do a search and you should find them. Look at them and you should be able to figure them out. They arent hard to replace. (just need some metric hand tools and some extensions)

 

Yes, the side mount is the on one the passenger side. Yes usually its just the front and side that go bad, No there arent after market ones that are better. Yea if you get alot of engine movement mount or mounts are bad

 

what if my engine vibrates the car when I shut off the engine?

ss that considered a bad mount as well? My car is lowered on apexi coilovers and I'm not sure if coilovers will make the shaking more drastic that any stock TL's when shutting off the engine.

I told the dealer to check the mounts, but they said its fine.

 

Well in that case I would maybe say it was fine . Cuz usually they want your money haha. The dealership told me my motor mount was bad after replacing the tranny but I did not want to give them 350 to replace it.

 

do i need to put any sort of support on the engine? would i need to pull it up or hold it up?

 

All listed in the other threads, But all you have to do is place a jack under the oil pan to support it
