Anyone have experience using a Amazon $98.00 Beck/Arnley 104-2127 Rear Motor Mount 2007 Acura Type S Auto. The reason is I found one new for way less than retail. Are Beck Arnley made in Japan?
Thanks,

 

But it now-$47.15 ($30+$17.15 shpg)

Are these any good? Or just use Honda

 

In this situation, I say a mount is a mount so save money, but if you're like some others that feel Honda/Acura parts are the best that can be had, then spend the extra money purchase OEM $159/$116.

I checked the ebay link $100+. I swear yesterday it was @ $50 including shipping.

I'll try again $30 + $17.15 shpg.

IMO, the rear mount is the only one I would highly recommend getting OEM for as it reduces a LOT of the vibrations. Beck parts are usually the same as OEM parts so it's a steal!

 

I'm not sure on what aftermarket parts are the same as OEM, but especially for this car, I would stick to OEM mounts. Two main factors for that are the OEM engine mounts are liquid filled, which help in their dampening capabilities. The other reason is the front and rear mounts are vacuum controlled on the 5AT's. If you lose the vacuum controlled mounts, you will have significantly increased vibrations in the cabin. I had one of my vacuum lines not attached on the front mount and had a lot of vibrations before figuring out the dealer neglected to hook the line back up. Maybe the vibrations won't bother you that much, but I have read other issues on the forums with increased vibrations while accelerating as well. I am not sure I have read anything positive about any non-OEM mounts, so just keep that in mind while purchasing.

 

Interesting, so only the AT models have vacuum activated mounts and not the MT models?

 

It looks like the MT only has the vacuum mount on the front mount, not the rear, while the 5AT has vacuum mounts on the front and rear. Basing that off the parts diagrams I have looked at.

 

Thanks for the info.
