Mazda 6 MPS - SURE Motorsports Rear Engine Mount

[MaxMPS]

Just called west end Mazda in north parramatta $365 for a drivers side engine mount any1 know of any aftermarket one of these if so can you guys send me a link or direct me to the right place and I also asked them about the rubber in the engine bracket (the pic I posted up before with the red arrow) they don't sell the rubber on it's own because the rubber is pressed into the bracket and the engine bracket is $102 cheers guys

Is it possible one of your other engine mounts has failed? I was looking through the service history on my car and one of the other mounts was changed at 30,000km (I think the driver's side). I believe this may be a known issue at least in the 6, and may account for the engine movement.

Also, Cullen from SURE told me 65 ft lbs for tightening

Any idea where the other mounts are located? I only know where the rear engine mount is, if that's the case I will probably just go to the dealer and get the OEM mounts as I've never heard of an aftermarket driver's side mount or passenger side etc.

Is there any chance the one you already had was an aftermarket one? Could explain why you haven't noticed any difference maybe? I know the cp-e version doesn't have any logos (well mine didn't anyway).

No it was a stock one.

I am not too sure about the 3, I have seen a few on various US websites (ie Streetunit) however they are likely to be more rough than OEM. I don't know if there has been an improvement to the design of the standard ones, but I haven't had an issue and am now on 115,000km. Maybe someone with a 3 will know, there might also be a TSB out on them but I have no idea where to look them up.

I can't really say but I think you can see them under the bonnet, one is on the drivers side where the engine and body are bolted together, and the other is on the passenger side connecting the transmission to the body.

There are aftermarket options but as I mentioned in my previous post I think the NVH levels are higher. Have a look on Streetunit?

well i have the AWR passenger and transmission engine mounts aswell as the sure diff mounts (brace and front) on there way and should be here soon, im expecting zero engine movement, a stiff rear end and HUGE vibes

[mazda6mps]

No vibes... interesting....have you turned on your aircon yet?

Yes I have, absolutely NOTHING! Kind of worries me lol.

I tightened my mount to "tight" no idea on torque settings, I wouldn't worry about it, just don't have it loose
