FEBI BILSTEIN 31958 Engine mount

A VW engine mount, just like any engine mount in a car, is a crucial component that serves two main purposes:

1. Securing the Engine: The engine mount firmly attaches the VW engine to the car’s chassis. This prevents excessive engine movement during operation, which would otherwise cause vibrations and instability throughout the vehicle.

2. Dampening Vibrations: The engine mount isn’t a rigid connection. It’s typically made of rubber or hydraulic materials that absorb vibrations generated by the engine. This helps to:

   • Reduce noise and vibrations felt inside the cabin, creating a smoother ride.
   • Protect other car components from the constant shaking of the engine.

There can be several engine mounts on a VW, strategically placed to effectively support the engine from different angles and absorb vibrations from various directions.
