[stupidcar]

Wow, Proton boleh!

Not only Proton has it lahhhh.

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

Engine or Tranny mounting?

tranny

 

[DanzEterna]

will it effect the gearbox internals?

 

[stupidcar]

tranny

Damn, driving a Persona.

 

[^pomen_GTR^]

will it effect the gearbox internals?

internal no affect...

unless lower side gearbox scrapping the road and leaks the oil....

worst case is driveshaft kong/patah/tercabut....

 

[jerrysiow]

WA! First time see this!! The mounting is so weak? Will this mounting spoiled and causes the engine internal parts crack or gearbox internal crack?

Not only Proton has it lahhhh.

What other car engine mounting fail the whole car falls?

 

[Waiora_ProTuner]

if got nothing useful for this thread, don't bash...
only the whole engine fall, not the whole car...

neo got 3 engine mounting...seems like only 2 mounting left not able to hold the engine upright...
in my case, i've hit 'something' at the lower side of gearbox casing...thus the mounting crack..but still holding up..

until 1 night, when i make a 'slow' u-turn...

How much to settle? Is the mounting plastic/rubber/metal?

Bash? I asking a question. Can answer?

Oh sorry not car falls, what other engine falls/drops, when engine mounting fails?

Don't say people bash when you fail to answer people's question. That's like saying the teacher is stupid cause you don't know how to answer his question. Doesn't make you very bright.

:wavey:

Proton boleh!? whats that for?

Wow, Proton boleh!

A simple search found out the Smart Fortwo and Dodge SRT also have similar problem...and Mazda 3/Ford...

Also you should revise the question to,"what other engine falls/drops, when only 1 engine mounting fails?".

rubber + metal....in my case Proton bear half of the cost...mounting + driveshaft + gearbox oil..
