Engine Movement with New Mounts??

[Audrius Tech]

Hey ya all! Does anyone has a vid or something with good engine mounts? I did replace them, but it seems that have no change to little change...Wanna know if that movement is normal or the engine should be complete stable after the mounts change. Here's the vids before and after.

Thanks!

they should be a small movement on the engine. the second video looks fine. also, check your transmission mounts they transfer vibration to the chassis.

I think you mean transfer case cross-member mounts, no trans mounts on the E53.

yea that.

I never watched my engine under load to see it move but logic dictates if there is vibration isolation there would have to be some give. I'm going to check mine out to compare

If an E53 has seen a few k miles with bad motor/TC mounts, fixing those items will sometimes still leave a drivetrain vibration at certain RPM/loads unresolved. That vibration will usually be resolved with flex disc/rear driveshaft support bearing replacement.

Thanks guys! Yeap, gonna go for trans case mounts soon together with whole front driver side (steering rack, steering knuckle, shock absorber and etc. ). The vibration just kills me... sometimes just set on Neutral on red lights, just to don't feel it when it gets through cabin . So engine mounts been done good as I understood Thanks Again!
