Engine Mounts how much should it cost to replace 3 engine and 1 transmission mounts on 01 honda civic ex?
i just had my struts replaced and the mechanic told me that 3 engine mounts and 1 transmission mount was loose. so i was wondering what might cause this to happen and how much it would cost to fix. the mechanic quoted me $582. thank you
This is quite a common problem for hondas based upon the movement of the engine, in relation to the direction it's facing. The engine moves forward and backwards, where as the 2 side mounts are better suited for holding it from flexing left and right, NOT forward and backward. BUT any car with the same engine set up will also have this problem.
As for price that price is a little high but it's not too off. A good deal of work goes into replacing the rear motor mount. the side mounts are very easy to replace though.
You have to figure shops charge on the average 60-80 dollars an hour for labor and the rear mount will say by the book it should take around 2 hours if not more.

im not trying to be mean or anything, but d17a1,a2, and a3 gain very little from all three. maybe around 5 horsepower or so, sad to say, but our engines dont respnd well to bolt ons. so we didnt gain 12-15. but at least we gained something =)
Call your nearest Advance Auto Parts store and ask them.
