Engine Mount: Description and Operation

The engine is mounted at three points. At the front, on each side of the engine, there is a mounting bracket with a Hydramount mounted to the crossbeam. At the rear, a single rubber/metal composite mount is fixed to the cast crossmember.

The rear engine mounting rubber provides support for the rear of the engine and the transmission unit. This is a rubber mount and metal bracket assembly secured with a single fixing onto the crossmember. This, in turn, is located on an extension bracket at the rear of the transmission unit.

The three mountings are non-serviceable items.
