Talking I got a few questions...

Well I don't know which motor mount it is but everytime I take my car out of park and either place it in reverse or D4 my car does shakes. Like if I put it in D4 you can feel when the transmission selects D4.

Now how would I know which mount it is? I'm aware that in our models we have a side passenger mount and front & rear mount. Is there a transmission mount?

Side passenger engine mount:

orange fluid (im guessing) leaking from the mount...rust maybe?

This is a question regarding my front windshield. I have this like stain water I believe that will not come off and it looks like this:

Don't know what this is...can someone let me know.

And how do you get rid of curb rash because my right passenger tire is pretty uh beat lol


Please help...thanks

holy rashed up wheel..

you can try it yourself... i've seen a few DIYs on other forums and stuff.. just dont think they're rash was as bad as yours

but i wouldn't spend money on refinishing stock wheels.. unless they're like.. GTR/IS-F wheels or something of that sort..

hahaha

Thanks I will check out the forums for the thread and I hit a curb really hard and wasn't paying anyway attention and it knocked my car out of line also and I needed an alignment. But I was thinking about getting the 02-03 Type-S wheels but can't seem to find them on the blackmarket.

How about my mount and front windshield issue? Anyone?

my windshield was in teh same condition. my detailer said that he will go over the windows with a buffer or something. all i know is that it went away and never came back.

side motor mound doesnt have fluid. its just a rubber mount. check teh front mount. thats the one that tends to break ofter. we also have trans mounts, just some rubber, never heard of them breaking.

They should all be made of rubber and that way they would give more and have less tendency to break, IMHO.

it would have vibration inside the car. and too soft, the mounts would just rip apart. it a luxury car, ppl () want a smooth ride. us young guys beat on the cars often.

an option is to polly if the mounts.

Actually the side does have a fluid in it. Odds are your problem is the side and front. They are the ones that usually go. The rear could be bad as well but i would start out with the 2 mentioned.
