Aftermath of changing engine and gearbox mount

[achuafc]

Kakis,

I've just changed my engine and gearbox mounts and realized quite a world of difference in terms of smoothness in driving. The smoothness can be described as you feel less vibration from your steering wheel and also the cabin seems a little quieter. 204 has clocked 90k and see&see informed that the engine mount was low. Changed outside with original parts installed, so avoided the monstrous bill from see&see.

Now, the car seem more like brand new. May work for you too if you haven't gotten these parts changed recently.

Congrats on the new car feeling. I have always advocated regular changing of these mounts.
As at today's' mileage of 60k km for my car, I have already changed these mounts twice. That's every 30k km interval. It's a bit overboard, but what the heck! I love the quiet ride after changing them.
Btw, I change them outside C&C with parts purchased from Goldenlink.

Goldenlink carries the engine mount at around $160+ (need 2) and the gearbox mount around $70. So, rest is dependent on how much the garage charge you for labour liao.

So Doc, what other wear-&-tear stuff for the car for regular changes to keep the car smooth and silent? Share share lei.

Transmission oil change! The manual says change at Service B+..ie 60k km. IMO, that's a bit too long for my comfort for a turbo car. Heat is biggest culprit here.
I change the transmission oil at 30k km interval also. Can buy 6lit of transmission oil, oil filter & gasket from Goldenlink & get it changed at any workshop outside. About $300 for the whole works...for a peace of mind.
My GB is ultra smooth all the time.

Just joking....I go to this place called Team Sportivo.

Team Sportivo Pte Ltd. Address. Address: 176 Sin Ming #03-12 Sin Ming Autocare. Singapore 575721. Telephone: 65462022.
Look for Rick...he's the boss. Tell him that Dr Jimmy recommends.
Reasonable price. BTW Goldenlink is also in the same building. I usually buy the parts & carry over to Rick. If the parts are too heavy, can request for Goldenlink to trolley over to Rick.
