Hey there. I just found out that my rear motor mount might be broken!! Where else other than the Scion dealer can I get a rear motor mount for my '06 tC???
Thanks!!!

 

How did you do that?

An engine torque damper might help to prevent these things from happening.

I believe that I heard of somebody making polyurethane mounts, but I forget where they are. Somebody else may be able to help there. Unfortunately though, i believe that you would have to replace all of the mounts with polyurethanes if you are doing one.

 

You could get some polyurethane mounts... might as well take this as an opportunity to do so if you have to replace one.

I know Speed Source has some:

And I'm sure some others do too.

And btw... how did you manage to break it?

Yea, I dont know how it happened. All I know is that when I start my engine, it shakes a lot and I can feel something hit near my pedals. My clutch is like new and it dosent slip. I was told by 2 of my friends that tested my ride and both said chances are its my rear motor mount. Dunno though, if anyone knows anything else, Im open to suggestions.

Thanks for the replys guys!

 

It would probably take a lot of torque to break it so early in the car's life... are you boosted or anything? Dump the clutch a lot and launch hard repeatedly? Those are things that I would think would hurt your mounts.

If you can, I'd say get it into the dealer to have them look. Worst case, if you did something, they say it's not covered under warranty to fix it - but they could tell you what's wrong. And if you need the poly ones, order 'em up.

 

ack154:: Im not boosting yet. BUT, I have dumped the clutch several times, not all, but A LOT and I do launch hard sometimes too. Its not everyday that I do it, but I think it might have done a number on my M.M.
I will take it in to the dealer to see if they can find out whats up...see if my friedns are right or if its worse..LOL!!

 

broke mine too. its like the rubber just fell out

 

damn, something i am not looking forward to
