Engine mount - Top right!

Post by Pilch »

Got a 1999 406 1.8 Petrol with a shot engine mount!

Is it easy to change with any tips?

Cheers

Bit of wood on top of a trolley jack under the sump, support the engine's weight with it and bob's your uncle. May need a bit of man-handling to get the mount back on after

Yeh dealers aint too bad it seems for general wear and tear items.
All the engine mounts and the gearbox mount came to £115 for me :)
Didn't think that was bad at all :lol:

I found a second item recently that dealers have a great price on - ES9J4 crankshaft sensor! About the same price as a D9 clutch slave cylinder, which is the other thing ECP can't get anywhere near on price :shock:

Done it today, all i needed was a 16mm socket and 16mm spanner + Trolley jack!

Was simple, and as i said to the other half, saved us a lot of money!
