Hi All, 2003 SSEi,...
my motor mount, front just behind radiator, i believe it is called the Tranny Mount, keeps breaking.
I LOVE to hammer on my gas pedal, this car books!!!
But, the stinking CHEAP motor mounts now a days keeps breaking, every 2 years!

Any suggestions?
i bought this car new, and it has 150K miles now.
thx
mike

Common issue search "Puck Mount"... Long bolt, 3 hockey pucks, swaybar endlink bushing, 2-3 washers and a nut. it wont brake.
Puck mount: I would definatly suggest a bushing between the upper mount bracket and the bolt.

I also havnt tried this but they are covette motor mounts: if you want something fancy

It can also be done with a roller from a boat trailer like mine.

The basic idea is to get something made of a stiff rubber and make it the same height as the stock Mount and then through bolt it so it can't move

Beware of the TCC vibrations! Some like it, some don't. I got pretty used to it, but I'm half certain the hockey puck mount is the reason my interior fell apart in a matter of months.

I have no TCC vibrations...

THANK YOU, i will do that! those cost me $65 each time, the stock motor mount.
great ideas, thx.

replaced it every 2 years??!!! really??? hell i couldnt get them to last 2 months!!!!

well, yes, if it were my car, i would be in your boat. BUT, it is my wifes daily driver.
she LOVES this car, i can't get her to buy a new car. She loves her SSEi.
PS, what is Disabled DRL???
