how much does it cost to change mounting?

[Creat1ve]

Hi Guys, I am new here. Looking at changing my engine and gearbox mounting for my 2010 W212.  Any idea what is the current price to pay and any recommendation of workshop in the East? Thanks in advance.

 

It would depends on whether getting the parts yourself or workshop supplying with parts.

Excessive vibration when car is idling/moving off.

Actually, I think the word "excessive vibration" is quite subjective.

 

One popular servicing workshop in Tampines tell me that I need to change engine+gearbox mounting as there are vibration.

 

Another workshop in SinMing tell me no need after test driving me car, he say vibration is normal for 9 yr old W211.

 

Is there any sensor warning inbuilt on the system to tell to me time to change both mounting ?

Unfortunately no sensor. Cos its subjective to how tolerant you are to vibration. So yourself is the best sensor 

 

Normal car mounting can last 4 to 5 years.

 

I change my mounting every 2-3 years because I can't tolerate even the slight vibration on my steering wheel during idling and acceleration

Around $600 for complete job!

Usually they are worn out every 60,000km

For W212, not much vibration felt but when you accelerate especially on a cold engine, it sounds like a motor boat.

My late 2011 W212, I changed the engine and gear box mounting at 60,000km and it's now back again at 120,000km.

Next change!

OEM Engine mounting LEMFORDER brand for W211 only $120 for both left and right which actually is the same

Gearbox mounting only $20

after changing, the car is so quite, zero vibration

workshop say visual check, if engine mounting sink down, time to change else later will after other parts

Thank you all for the good advice.

 

Ah Yeo, How long it takes to change? Workshop reliable?

If the mechanic is experienced, can get it done in 2hrs

for my case E230

the left engine mounting more lechey to take as the mechanic have to dismantle the exhaust to reach it

the right engine mounting easier

the gearbox mounting is the easiest, just take out and replace, nothing blocking it

Same same la.

Avantg is suppose to be 10mm lower compare to the Elegance series. In actual fact spring and shock is similar, difference is the position of the spring mounting cup. Its adjustable.

So in summary its the same.

Thank you tanwill...
