Just bought a used '05 with 70k on her. Once we had the front end tie arms and links replaced, I isolated a creaking/groaning noise on initial acceleration coming from the passenger side motor mount. After initial torque lessens, the creaking stops and the car is quiet during cruising.

The mount doesn't appear to be cracked or loose and does not appear to be damaged enough that I can see any motor movement.

Has anyone else seen/experienced this?

Is this a total mount replacement?

Any ideas as to cost should the dealer do it?

Thanks in advance.

 

Hi there, I know your post was a couple of years ago now but I just came across it tonight while dealing with the same issue.
I had a mechanic tell me this was the problem - the part is $400 new and about an hours worth of labour to replace.
Did you end up getting yours done? Did it solve the problem?
