I was performing some maintenance on my car and thought while I had it up and the radiator hose's off I might as well replace the motor mount as many on here stated how it should be replaced around 60,000 miles.

Now even though I did not notice any of the tale-tale signs of a failing motor mount I thought it would be good proactive work.

After I had replaced and finished my other items went for a nice drive with the top up at the time (raining on and off) with my wife and having a nice conversation when she looked at me and asked if I noticed anything...... She then said she no longer has to talk loud ;-)

It was quite a difference, the noise level in the car and the vibration I guess over time I just got used to.

Both on Pelican Parts and Pedro's garage sites (along with this forum) detail the process for change.
