Question 1

How to check and replace the engine mount and transaxle mounts on the V6 Nissan Altima?

Accepted Answer

There are three engine mounts and one transaxle mount, with the engine mounts located on the passenger's side and at the front and rear of the engine block, while the transaxle mount is bolted to the left side of the transaxle. To check the mounts, the engine must be raised slightly to relieve weight from them, and the vehicle should be securely supported on jackstands, with the engine/transmission supported from above using a hoist or three bar support fixture. Inspect the mounts for any cracks, hardening, or separation from the bushing, and check for any relative movement between the mounts and the engine or frame, using a large screwdriver or prybar to test for movement; if any is detected, lower the engine and tighten the mount fasteners. For replacing a front or rear engine mount, raise the front of the vehicle and securely support it on jackstands, then remove the splash shields from underneath. Attach an engine hoist to the top of the engine for lifting, ensuring not to use a jack under the oil pan to avoid damaging the oil pump pick-up. Next, remove the engine mount-to-chassis fasteners and the engine mount-to-engine mount bracket nut, then raise the engine slightly to remove the engine mount from the vehicle, with installation being the reverse of removal.

Question 2

How to inspect and renew the Engine Mount and Motor and Transmission Mount on a 1.2L petrol Nissan Juke?

Accepted Answer

To assess the brakes, make sure that the handbrake is on before jacking up the front part of the car and placing it on the axle stands. At the base of the mounting check the rubber for signs of cracking, hardening or if the rubber has separated from the metal, if there is any evidence to suggest that the rubber needs replacement, then then it should be replace by a new one. Tighten all fasteners to the appropriate level, if a torque wrench is available use it. A visible examination and an attempt to lever against the mounting should be made; If there is too much of free play, one should look at the fasteners and determine whether they are still tight or not and replace any worn out bearings. In the case of the right-hand mounting, the following procedures were taken; disconnect the battery negative terminal, jack up the engine with wood block support, removed the retaining bolt from the inner wing panel and engine mounting bracket and finally withdrew the complete mounting. Check and replace any worn or damaged part of the widget as and when needed. Loosen and remove the engine mounting and bracket and replace it then tightened the bolts and then slowly lower the jack and connect the battery. To replace left hand mounting pull out the battery and tray, lift up with jack the transmission and unscrew the nuts to pull out the mounting. If required, it is disengaged upper and lower mounting brackets, and that it is checked for wear or damage on this and renew certain parts of it. Replace the brackets back and fasten the retaining bolts properly in their respective positions, touching the lower bracket bolt to the left hand rubber mounting and fasten the nut. Replace the outer retaining nuts, remove the jack, replace the battery along with the tray. For the rear lower mounting one should use handbrake ,jack up the front of the car and secure it firmly. Unfasten all the bolts, which united the rear mounting bracket to the transmission, and take it out, then, unfasten the bolt, which united the rear mounting link to the subframe. Check for the levels of tear and wear and replace all the components that appear damaged. Reassemble by screwing the rear mounting into its place on the subframe and then tightening the retaining bolt followed by the mounting bracket into the transmission and fastening the bolts. Lastly, lower the vehicle back down to the ground to its recommended standard height.

Question 3

How to check and replace engine mounts on Nissan Maxima with SOHC engine?

Accepted Answer

There are four engine mounts,front and rear engine mounts on the right side attached to the engine block and lower crossmember, and front and rear transaxle mounts on the left side attached to the transaxle and frame. To check the mounts, the engine must be raised slightly to remove weight from them. The vehicle should be raised and securely supported on jackstands, with the engine/transaxle supported from above using a hoist or engine support fixture. Inspect the mounts for cracked, hardened rubber or separation from the bushing, and check for relative movement between the mounts and the engine or frame using a large screwdriver or prybar; if movement is noted, lower the engine and tighten the mount fasteners. Applying rubber preservative can help slow deterioration. For replacement, disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal, set the parking brake, block the rear wheels, raise the front of the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands while removing the splash shields. Support the engine from above, then remove the through-bolts from the right-front and right-rear mounts, detach the crossmember from the vehicle, and remove the mount-to-engine bracket through-bolts. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring bolts are tightened to specifications only after the engine weight is back on the mounts and the jack is removed. The two transaxle mounts include one at the radiator side (left-front) and one at the top (left-rear). For the left-front mount, support the transaxle with a jack, remove the through-bolt at the chassis, and the bolts holding the mount to the transaxle before removing the mount. The left-rear mount requires removing nuts at the mount bracket from below and the through-bolt at the chassis bracket from above, followed by lowering the transaxle to clear the bracket and removing the mount. Installation is the reverse of removal, with bolts tightened to specifications only after the engine weight is back on the mounts. For final tightening, ensure the vehicle is level and the engine weight is on the mounts, using thread-locking compound on the nuts/bolts and ensuring bushings are not twisted or offset. If multiple mounts have been replaced or during engine installation, tighten the mounts in the specified order.
