TEDGUM 00651898 Holder, engine mounting

A Suzuki engine mount is a critical component that isolates the engine vibration and noise from the chassis of your Suzuki. It essentially acts like a cushion between the engine and the frame, allowing for smooth operation and a quieter ride.

Suzuki engines typically use multiple engine mounts, strategically placed to support the engine weight from different angles. These mounts are made of a combination of rubber and metal parts. The rubber dampens engine vibrations, while the metal parts provide the necessary strength and support.

There are two main types of Suzuki engine mounts:

• Hydraulic engine mounts: These mounts use a fluid-filled chamber to absorb vibrations. They are often used for the main engine mounts that take on the most significant load.
• Solid engine mounts: These mounts are simpler in design and use rubber to isolate vibrations. They might be used for secondary mounts or for performance applications where minimal movement is desired.

Over time, engine mounts can wear out due to aging, exposure to heat and engine stress. Worn mounts can cause:

• Increased engine vibration felt in the cabin
• Abnormal noises during acceleration or idling
• Difficulty shifting gears
