3000 rpm vibration and motor mount - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

I did my motor mount mid summer. I had the vibration at 3000k for two summers and decided I HAD to do it! It was very easy with the right instructions and taking great care. I used 6 jack stands... under the engine too. DO NOT depend on a floor jack to hold the engine in place for any amount of time!!!
The new OEM mount fixed the problem! Not 100%, but almost! Night and day difference! The old mount was completely cracked inside.

Wow, now that's really doing some revving. I had no idea the Pcar could do that!

I had Pedro's Enthusiast mount put in bythe man himself yesterday. It resolved my vibrations (for the most part) and made shifting much cleaner and easier.

Just my 2c.

I think mine's starting to go too. Just got my 987 mount from Suncoast yesterday. Will post update after install.

My .02 I replaced my mount 15k ago with the 987 and am in need of another mount. I'm going with Pedro's race mount and try that. I do drive hard, lots of DE's so in my opinion the stock 987 doesn't cut it for me.

Did you get ripped on brokerage and duty?

Ask them to ship USPS, you'll have to pay taxes when you pick it up at the post office.

Interesting. The last time I bought something from them (a while ago) they said they wouldn't ship USPS because of inability to track the package and potential damage issues or something like that.
