!Guide! Replacing Front Right Engine Mount - MK7 2011

Featured Replies

-Ford Fiesta Zetec JA8 1.25 duratec 16v petrol 08-13

----------------------------------------------------------

Misc:
-You should ideally replace the engine mount bolts
-The official Ford mount has the front engine mount bracket already attached
-Aftermarket mounts don't always have the front engine mount bracket attached
-If you remove 2 or more engine/transmission mounts at a time then the outline of each mount needs to be marked with a pen. This is to regain correct alignment.
-If you are only removing 1 engine/transmission mount then it will naturally square itself off on reassembly

----------------------------------------------------------

-Pull up from the expansion tank to pull it free from it's 3 mounting points
-Unclip the narrow hard plastic radiator breather pipe from the expansion tank
-Leave the rubber hoses connected but move the expansion tank to one side so that it is out of the way (Position it so that coolant doesn't spill out of the hole)
-Put a jack under the engine oil sump and jack the engine up by a few millimetres (Use a piece of wood on the jack point so you do not damage the sump)


Mount with the bracket already attached:
-Spray all of the bolts on the mount with penetrating oil and clean them with a wire brush
-Unbolt the 3 15mm bolts on the engine mount (You will need a long extension for 2 of these bolts)
-Unbolt the 2 18mm bolts that are securing the engine mount bracket to the engine bracket
-Lift the mount off and replace it with the new one
-Fasten the 3 15mm bolts for the engine mount @ 48Nm (You will need a long extension for 2 of these bolts) (Ideally replace these bolts)
-Fasten the 2 18mm bolts for the engine mount bracket @ 55Nm (Ideally replace these bolts)
-Lower the engine back down
-Clip the expansion tank back into position
-Clip the radiator breather pipe into the expansion tank


Mount with no bracket attached:
-Spray all of the bolts on the mount with penetrating oil and clean them with a wire brush
-Unbolt the 18mm bolt that secures the engine mount bracket to the actual mount itself
-Unbolt the 3 15mm bolts on the engine mount (You will need a long extension for 2 of these bolts)
-Unbolt the 2 18mm bolts that are securing the engine mount bracket to the engine bracket
-Lift the mount off and replace it with the new one
-Fasten the 3 15mm bolts for the engine mount @ 48Nm (You will need a long extension for 2 of these bolts) (Ideally replace these bolts)
-Place the bracket in position on the mount
-Fasten the 2 18mm bolts for the engine mount bracket @ 55Nm (Ideally replace these bolts)
-Fasten the 18mm bolt that will secure the engine mount bracket to the actual mount itself @ 80Nm
-Lower the engine back down
-Clip the expansion tank back into position
-Clip the radiator breather pipe into the expansion tank
