Differential Mount: Description and Operation

POWER PLANT MOUNT

GENERAL INFORMATION
To support the power plant, the inertial axis four-point mount system has been adopted. The system has the following features:
^ Environmental-load substances are totally abolished for hexavalent chromium-free and lead-free components.
^ For the engine and transaxle mounting insulator, the cylindrical liquid seal mountings are adopted. This reduces idling vibration and acceleration noise, and improves riding comfort.
^ For the engine mounting bracket, lightweight and high rigidity aluminum has been adopted to reduce acceleration noise.
^ For the transaxle mounting bracket, lightweight and high rigidity aluminum has been adopted to reduce acceleration noise. [2.0L ENGINE]
^ For the transaxle mounting bracket, lightweight and high rigidity sheet metal has been adopted to reduce the gear noise. [2.4L ENGINE]
^ The mass damper is added into the center member to reduce muffled sound during acceleration. [2.0L ENGINE]
^ The front axle crossmember has been fully flattened to improve steering ability.
^ The front axle crossmember bar is added to enhance rigidity. aluminum has been adopted to reduce acceleration noise. [2.0L ENGINE]
