Engine Mounts

[Jade06]

Hey guys, I might have to change my engine mounts. When I take the car out of park I get a noise and like the front of the car jerks alittle...

So I was going to replace them and was wondering, looks like I will need part # 2, 3, and 4 from the diagram... should I rplace #5 as well (tranny mount)?

The mounts aren't 2, 3, 4, or 5. Those are the brackets connected to the mounts E. The mounts you should be looking at are 9 (front), 8 (passeger side), 6 (Rear of engine), 13 (upper part of trannie), 11 (lower part of trannie). Usually you can tell if a mount is bad if you see some type of black fluid oozing out of it. At other times, you can tell just by looking at the way the engine vibrates at idle or by visually looking at the mounts to see if there's any cracks or tears in the rubber. Don't go changing all the mounts unless you know it's bad cuz you'll just be wasting money changing a mount that didnt needed changing.

^Good advice Steve.  The only thing that I wanted to mention, is that there are two lower transmission mounts.  The front is #11 and the rear is #12.  That's the only thing that was really missing from the list.

Thanks Tim. I didn't realize that the lower transmission mounts were two pieces that inter-locked into each other.
