Energy suspension engine mount problem
Post by taz8520 » Fri Mar 15, 2013 7:35 pm
I fitted some ES mounts today only the front engine mount, upon driving home when idling my car shakes, RPM sits a about 6-700 which is about normal for my lude, when take it up to 1k the shaking goes, this problem only occurred after fitting the ES mount, does this normally happen?

That's normal, I remember seeing LLL's lude with full poly engine mounts and the whole thing vibrated a lot on idle. The rubber absorbs the vibrations much better than polyurethane but as it has more give restricts the throttle response through engine movement

i had a solid engine mount on my 106 and hated it, just felt like i was punishing the car a lot more.
