Engine Mount Connection Broken - Please Help..

sbnisan · July 28, 2007

HI ALL,

In my Fb15 i have a problem such that, the place whare the front engine mount connect to the engine has broken . Currently engine connects to the front engine mount by two bolts. But the lower bolt has broken from the place where it connects to the engine. When i took it to a guarage the guy said, sir you can weld it and run for some time, and he said if you want to get it done at A*..W agent they will just replace the entire engine cover and it will cost around 100K.

Guys it it true that we need to replace the entire engine cover. Is welding work will be egough for long run of the vehicle. Has any body experiences such a proble. Please help me on this matter. Fortunately still the vehicle does not create any problem for me (such as vibrating). What shoul i do here ? expect your valuable ideas please..

i have attached a image of the damage..

If the upper bolt is ok- then welding the lower one should sort you're problem as these bolts are normally pretty strong and dont let up.. it maybe a good idea to get the job done at a Pattalaya as you will need electric welding & as this a specialist job.
