My friend was performing a transmission fluid chnage on my '05 AT TL yesterday, when he noticed that the front motor mount had a slow fluid leak. He pointed out a ring of fluid around the mount. If you were to look from under the car at the cross member, where it mounts, you can see a ring of fluid.
My car has only 28,000 miles on it and I'm still covered under warranty, so I'm going to call Acura today and schedule an appointment.
I was curious...has anyone else had any problems with bad motor mounts/had them replaced? Is this a common issue?
Thanks

 

yes, ive replaced a few.. yes they are fluid filled, and if they crack all the way through the fluid will leak out

 

i've done couple of those with low mileage and ending up replacing under warranty

 

I just replaced one at my 92,000 recommended maintenance.

 

I replaced mine this past week and it has made all the difference in the ride and idle. I don't remember the car ever being this smooth. The people on here have done a great job on this subject. Just do a search on "motor mounts" and you will find more GOOD info on this subject than you thought existed!!

 

Yes...they are a common problem. As Indy04TL said use the search function...ton of information out there. I have changed all three motor mounts myself with the DIY info out there
