Funció i finalitat

While engine mounts do not have "operating" instructions in the traditional sense, understanding their function is key to vehicle maintenance. The DEA A5585 engine mount serves two primary purposes:

• Suport del motor: It securely holds the engine and transmission in place within the engine bay, preventing excessive movement during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
• Vibració Dampening: The rubber components within the mount absorb vibrations and noise generated by the engine, preventing them from being transferred to the vehicle's chassis and cabin, thus ensuring a smoother and quieter ride.

Manteniment

Engine mounts are wear-and-tear components and do not require routine maintenance beyond periodic inspection. It is advisable to have your engine mounts inspected during routine vehicle servicing, typically every 50,000 to 100,000 miles, or if you notice any symptoms of failure.

Punts d'inspecció:

• Inspecció visual: Look for cracks, tears, or excessive compression in the rubber components.
• Fuites de fluids: Some hydraulic mounts contain fluid; check for any signs of leakage.
• Excessive Movement: With the vehicle safely supported, gently rock the engine to check for excessive play or clunking sounds.

Resolució de problemes comuns

Symptoms of a failing engine mount can often be mistaken for other vehicle problems. If you experience any of the following, it may indicate a worn or damaged engine mount:

• Vibracions excessives: Increased vibration felt in the steering wheel, floorboard, or seats, especially at idle or during acceleration.
• Loud Clunking or Banging Noises: Sounds coming from the engine bay, particularly when shifting gears, accelerating, or going over bumps.
• Engine Movement: Visible excessive movement of the engine when starting, stopping, or accelerating.
• Misaligned Engine: In severe cases, a completely failed mount can cause the engine to sag or shift, leading to misalignment of other components.

If you suspect an engine mount issue, it is crucial to have your vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic promptly to prevent further damage to other vehicle components.
