Engine mounts replaced 4.4 tdv8 | |
Just replaced 2 engine mounts on 4.4 tdv8
They were original, so 12 years olf
Also, original new ones
Difference in height between old/new
Old mounts are lower comparing to
1.4 cm left
0.9-1.0 cm right side
Reason for changing engine mounts...
On lower rpm, i feel vibration/resonance on left foot rest (LHD). (1000 till 1300, 1400 rpm)
Somethimes, there is also stronger vibration at idle
On harder acceleration, when changing gears i could feel changing, not so smooth
Also,
2 aluminium pipes from transmission cooler were touching eachother slightly.
When looked below car, left side, so i separated them.
On The top of the engine, coolant pipe that goes from radiator above top of the fan/radiator shroud had marks from below, because it was touching top of the shroud too much.
I believe that was because.engine mounts "sunk" lower than they should be
Test drive tomorrow, so we will see is there any difference.
