Engine mount replacement in North Parramatta
Engine mount replacement at Vertex Automotive, 7 Daking Street, North Parramatta, is quoted in writing once each mount has been checked under load. A thump when you select drive or reverse, or a vibration through the cabin at idle, usually points to a collapsed or split mount.
Engine and gearbox mounts hold the drivetrain in the car and soak up its vibration. They are rubber, some filled with fluid, and they harden, split or leak with age and heat.
More detail
A failed mount lets the engine move too far. You feel it as a thump when you select a gear or get on and off the throttle, or as a vibration at idle that was not there before.
We watch each mount while the engine is loaded in gear, and check the fluid-filled ones for leaks. The quote is for the mount that has failed, not the full set.

How much does engine mount replacement cost?
It depends on the car and which mount has failed. Some are quick to reach and some need the engine supported and parts moved. We find the failed mount, then quote it in writing.
Can I drive with a broken engine mount?
For a short while, gently, but have it looked at soon. A failed mount puts extra load on the others, and on the exhaust, hoses and driveshafts.
Do all the mounts need replacing at once?
Not usually. We replace the one that has failed and tell you the condition of the rest. If another is close behind, the quote shows it as a separate line and you decide.
Why does my car vibrate at idle?
A collapsed mount is one cause. A misfire or a rough idle is another, and that is an engine fault, not a mount. We check both before quoting.
What are the signs of a failed engine mount?
- A thump when you select drive or reverse
- A clunk getting on or off the throttle
- Vibration through the cabin at idle
- The engine rocks when it is revved
- Dark fluid leaking from a mount
- A knock from the engine bay over bumps
