Volkswagen Passat Motor Mounts & Mounting Hardware

The engine of your vehicle is a complex mechanism that has to be reliably kept in place regardless of the road conditions. During its work, the engine produces significant vibrations, which also have to be isolated from the other vehicle’s components and particularly the cabin. This job is fulfilled by motor mounts. They are designed to keep the engine and cushion its vibrations. These parts are designed very strong to cope with this uneasy job efficiently. However, at the same time, they comprise soft inserts, which are supposed to dampen vibrations. Thus, most engine mounts consist of a steel bracket and rubber bushing, which can be filled with special liquid in some models.

The faulty mounts can be the reason for other issues. If they perform poorly, you can experience excessive vibration; also, it means nothing good for the electronics and plastic panels of your auto. The former can start malfunctioning, while the latter can become the source of irritating noises. If you leave the problem unaddressed, the vibration is likely to become stronger, and the motor can shift from the right position causing troubles with shifting gears and affecting some other mechanisms. The Volkswagen Passat is a reliable vehicle, but some owners complain about the motor mounts after 60k miles.
