DIY front motor mount replacement w/pix

[eightsandaces]

Excellent write up, I just finished the same job, did you get the new mount with the triangular holes making it even a bit lighter? Anyway, The top bolt to the engine is the toughest as you have very little choice but to take small bites at it. I bled the clutch while I was down there and got four huge air bubbles out. With both repairs effected the difference is dramatic. The clutch engagement is very positive and the car accelerates smoother, it's almost as if you can feel the torque restored from the engine not rocking back and fourth with each shift...I know butt dyno nonsense but it feels 100% better, I think mine has been going since I picked the car up. It's incredibly gratifying to do, I love to work on the car, can you imagine how much the dealer is getting for that job? Many thanks to this forum which helps all of us be better mechanics.
