Hi AcuraZine!

After years of working on this car, one thing always bothered me. WHY is the engine vibrating so much, I don't want to feel the engine when im driving! Especially on idle.

I recently completed my 06 TL when I did the AV6 Tranny Swap and Steering Rack along with some New Lightweight Enkei TS-10's. The tranny swap of course added new transmission mounts, front engine mount, and my rear+side mounts were basically new (1 yr old).
Yet, the engine still vibrated... I even have new Fuel Injectors, What could it be?!?!

SOLUTION:
This little shit that throws no codes when it stops working.

For $50, and less than 1 minute of labor. You can replace this by yourself and BOOM the engine is 99% smoother. Granted the idle vibration can still come in here and there but overall the car feels amazing!

Conclusion:
I wish I knew this years ago and Honestly, As a rule of thumb I'd say replace this every time you replace motor mounts just to be safe.

 

lol I thought this was a question.

 

Ha! I could't think of a better title. In a way, u click baited yourself

 

Would this at all help aftermarket engine mounts? Specifically innovative motor mounts?

 

no I think those are solid mounts without fluid. This would be of no help in this case.
