Transmission Mount: Testing and Inspection
Transmission Mount Inspection
Notice: In order to avoid oil pan damage and possible engine failure, insert a block of wood that spans the width of the oil pan bottom between the oil
pan and the jack support.
1. Use a jack or a utility stand to raise the transmission/transaxle in order to remove the weight from the transmission/transaxle mount and create
slight tension in the mount.
2. Inspect the transmission/transaxle mount. Replace the transmission/transaxle mount if the transmission/transaxle mount exhibits any of the
following conditions:
*
The rubber surface is covered with cracks.
*
The rubber is separated from the metal plate of the mount.
*
The rubber is split through the center.
3. If there is movement between the metal plate of the transmission/transaxle mount and the transmission, tighten the transmission mount fasteners to
the correct tightening specification.
For information on the engine mount, refer to Engine Mount Inspection. See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Drive Belts, Mounts, Brackets and
