Causes of car engine mounts wear out
There are many reasons why your engine mounts may need replacing, some of the most common include:
1.Incorrect installation of the mounts
While one can install your engine mounts yourself, we recommend taking your vehicle to a reputable and qualified engineer as soon as you notice any signs your engine mounts need replacing. This ensures that your new fittings will be installed properly and last longer.
2. Ageing and weathering overtime
Engine mounts are typically made of rubber, a material that is prone to wear over time and may lose its elasticity and, as a result, lessen its function to your engine. Age and stress can cause small cracks in fluid-filled engine mounts that can lead to leaks. As soon as you notice this has happened, made obvious by increased vibration and engine mount noise, you should replace your worn engine mount.
3. Driving techniques that can damage the vehicle’s parts
Over-revving the gears and improper use of the clutch can cause serious damage to your engine mounts. Practicing proper driving techniques will extend the lifespan of your engine mounts and other vehicle components.
4. Accident involvement which has caused damage or moved the mounts
Involvement in an accident can cause internal damage, such as engine mount failure, as well as superficial damage. Similarly, make sure you’re aware of a car’s road history before buying a new car and getting the right checks put in place before taking the vehicle to the road. Taking these precautions will help keep the machine operator safe.
Benefits of engine mounts in a car
