Acura RSX Motor Mounts & Mounting Hardware

Motor mounts in your Acura RSX do much more than just hold the engine assembly. No matter how well balanced your engine is, it produces vibrations. Had the motor been bolted straight to the frame, those vibrations would reach the cabin depriving you of comfort. For that reason, motor mounts include soft inserts isolating the undesirable oscillations. Also, mounts dampen the impacts moving in the opposite direction – toward the engine. When the wheel hits a bump, suspension dissipates most of its energy. The rest of it disturbs chassis and everything it carries, including the motor. Engine mounts prevent that from happening to extend the useful life of the assembly.

According to the function performed, engine mounts are similar to suspension bushings. And so are the problems affecting their condition. Polyurethane is susceptible to continuous deformations. It deteriorates getting softer and softer. It’s bad because one weakened, worn-out mounting point puts a strain on the rest of them resulting in their overload and dramatically shortened useful life. You’d better not hesitate with the replacements. Visit our online store to find a range of top-notch Acura RSX motor mounts & mounting hardware.
