- Porsche 964 (911) C2 1989-93
The engine mount secures the rear-mounted engine to the chassis/subframe and isolates engine vibration from the cabin and body structure. It helps to maintain proper engine position, dampens engine movement under load, and allows the engine to operate smoothly without transferring excessive vibration or torque shock to the chassis.
Fits:
Porsche 964 Carrera 2 1989 - 1993
Diagram ref no 7.
The engine mount securely supports the engine within the chassis while absorbing vibration and reducing noise transmitted into the cabin. It controls engine movement during acceleration, braking, and cornering, helping maintain correct drivetrain alignment. This ensures smooth gear changes, balanced handling, and overall driving refinement.
Engine mounts are exposed to constant heat cycles, engine torque, and road vibration. With age, the rubber elements can crack, harden, or delaminate, causing increased vibration, noise, or excessive engine movement.
Symptoms of a worn engine mount may include:
• Increased engine vibration felt in the cabin
• Clunking or banging during acceleration/deceleration
• Visible engine movement under load
• Premature wear of other drivetrain components
Replacing worn or deteriorated mounts helps restore factory-style vibration damping, supports consistent engine positioning, and improves overall driving comfort and component life.
Replace this engine mount if:
• Engine movement is noticeably excessive under load
• You hear thuds or clunks during acceleration or gear changes
• Mount shows visible cracks, splits, or deterioration
• There is elevated engine vibration in the cabin
• During engine or transmission overhaul
