Transaxle Mount (Front or Rear)

GENERAL INFORMATION

IMPORTANT: When replacing any transaxle mount, the remaining mount through bolts and mount bracket to cradle nuts need to be loosened, then tightened in the following sequence:

1. Rear mount through bolt.
2. Rear mount bracket to cradle.
3. Front mount bracket to cradle.
4. Front mount through bolt.
5. Left mount through bolt.

NOTE: This procedure will eliminate engine/transaxle mount preload, which could cause driveability concerns. Tighten fasteners to manufacturers specifications.
