Its rare to get a DIY video so concise and to the point. You're living up to your name. Well done and thank you.
really appreciate getting to the point videos I get so tired of watching these guys with these huge introductions and all kinds of BS I really appreciate you man thank you very much
No problem man! Really appreciate your comment. I probably should be pushing my channel more in the intros, but when it comes to instructional videos, I know nobody wants to waste their time with that kind of stuff. That's actually one of the reasons I started my channel, I got so sick and tired of seeing hour long videos that I had to skip through just to find information
This video was pretty helpful, thanks for the torque specs, much appreciated. Took me about 20min. Didn't take the undertray completely off, just used the jack under it. PB blaster helped prevent the 18mm nuts from pulling the studs out. I also didn't have to pop out the whole coolant reservoir, just lifting the front clip up gave me enough room to slide the mount out. My car feels like new again, no vibrations at all.
Awesome man good to hear, and thanks for throwing and some tips for others!
Thank you for the info. Mine just went bad lastnight and there was black dry liquid all over the engine bay.

Hello there. I changed mine today. After when I turn to the left there’s a screeching noise any ideas?
love this video on how short, detailed and quick the install was
Buying the insert is so much less expensive than the whole thing! Thankyou
Yeah that's for sure. And no problem!
I replace mine on 2015 focus,had such a annoying vibration on startup through the steering wheel an cabin,now it’s quiet an so smooth like when it was new!!
Thank you for this. I recently developed a loudness/vibration when cruising at 1500 rpm and lightly at idle. In research I found this video and checked the mount in my car and sure enough it's covered in oil (looks exactly like the one in the video). Makes sense. About $60 for the mount at my local O'Reilly and I'll replace the mount. Great info!
Glad to hear you took care of it. Thanks for your comment
Dude thank you so much. I opened the box and saw this mount and was like there’s no way this is gonna work what holds it down. I can’t afford oem right now. I will by the time these Chinese ones wear out. Thanks for showing how it’s done though
Thank you for making a short to the point video that was informative and effective.
Glad it was helpful!
Who would of thought my fav RUclipsr did a repair that I need?!
Thanks for the Video I was able to take the Whole Motor mount Out I only used a Medium Size Flat head Screw Driver to take the Center Rubber Piece Out had to bend The Steel Clips
late to the video but definitely helped me, thanks for being no nonsense/no time waste. cheers mate
This exactly the video I needed to see: My passenger side MM looks just as bad as that one you replaced, and I have some engine movement. Thanks!
Thank you for putting this video up. It aided me with the replacement of my upper mount. Much appreciated.
No problem! Glad to hear it helped out. Thank you very much for the comment definitely appreciate it!
Thank you! Great tutorial, I'm doing mine this weekend! Bravo guys!
Awesome man, good luck with it and thanks for your comment!
Guys, just go with the Ford mount on the engine side. I've done this job with aftermarket mounts, and they're nowhere near as good. The Ford one I believe is hydraulic and most (all?) others are solid rubber. Did the Ford one on sister's Focus and the difference was night and day, even though the aftermarket one I removed wasn't old and still looked in good condition. And the inserts that you have to bend the bracket into the aluminum casting? I just threw a brand new one I had in the basement in the trash. You can get the factory ones for much cheaper than the dealer, but still from the dealer. Search OEM Pro Parts or something like that. Ford has a deal with online companies. You get the part much cheaper online, and pick it up at a local dealer or you can have it shipped. e.g. I got the CAD $130-150 mount from the dealer for CAD $95 + tax picked up. They wouldn't give me the same deal if I bought it straight from the dealer. Crazy, but whatever.
So true. mine did not leak for 8 years. I always thought my wheels were buckled. My car is driving like new now
Thank you learned some things I was unaware about
Fairly easy fix
You're the man! Gracias!
You're welcome
Thank you so much for the info. Love the fact you did it so fast.
Well done buddy.. Will be doing that little job soon..
Excellent explanation, Thank you.
Thank you,
Thanks! Happy new year 👍🏾
No problem and happy New Year back at ya!
Ford wanted to charge me $260 for that one mount!. I decided I’ll do it myself
Awesome, that's great to hear. Let me know how you make out! And good luck
My ford dealership wanted to charge me $600. Pffftt ridiculous
@@christianaraujo8048 damn thats steep
Christian Araujo wth that ridiculous!!
My estimate is $384.00
Don't bother with only replacing the top part of the motor mount or using an aftermarket mount unless you like doing things over. They fail in under a year plus they don't get rid of the vibration completely. Buy the factory one piece ass'y like he said. It will completely eliminate the vibration and last much much longer. Yes it cost a little more but It is money well spent. This is one of those parts you don't want to skimp on. Good luck.
Couldn't agree with you more
My factory one failed prematurely.. which is why I went with aftermarket. I always go with Motorcraft replacements unless the part failed early.
Hey 👋🏽 no clue if you still check these but my motor mount needs to be replaced and it looks like the bracket holding on the engine broke off. What would you do in that scenario?
Thanks !!!!!
At what mileage? Currently at 283k miles . Just did coolent overflow tank had some cracks in it. Thought to do alternator, water pump, thermostat, serpentine belt, and tensioner, coolant sensor with motor mount replacement too with new plugs and plug coils . That should take it to well over 300k miles.
great video. brakes plus wanted to charge my wife $600 for this.. hahah.. I got it done for $12.. thanks again.
No problem man glad to hear it help you out! Thanks for the comment
Price of a 6 pack?
Thanks for the video!
Would you recommend to replace all 3 mounts on an old car at once?
Just the front passenger side is usually enough to fix rattle/vibrations. I wouldn't mess with the tranny mounts unless you're a skilled mechanic
The mount u have liked for amazon does that fit exactly as the OEM one that’s on the 2014 Ford Focus, it’s listed up too 2012
Yes it should fit but dont quote me on it. sorry i couldn't be more helpful. Let me know what ya find out. thanks
Great JoB!
Thank you for the video but can you please write down the torque spec for the bolts
Ammar Shriba sorry, I don't have them handy. If you happen to find them it would be great if you could comment them back on here and I'll add them to the description too. Thanks for watching, and sorry for the inconvenience
NoNonsenseKnowHow i have looked for the torque specs and i found that the numbers are
66lb ft for the engine bolts
35lb ft for the chassis bolts
Ammar Shriba thanks for sharing, I will add it to description
Ammar Shriba thank man.👍
Good video man thanks
i have the problem on my 1.6 TDCI engine the engine mount does not have any leak but it is touching the metal part. before that i had a DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL fatal failure, and probably because of the heavy vibration, the engine mount collapsed and needs replacement.
Thank u sir
No prob buddy!
Good video however my chassis side bolts will not tighten all the way down. And a stud is just turning freely on engine side. I might have made it too tight. Ugh. What was a 5 minute job now needs a shop and will cost $90!!!
Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah I forget if I mentioned in this video or not but you have to make sure that the studs are fully seated before tightening in the nuts back down. I had a guy at my work once pull one of the suds straight out because it was only in a few threads when he tightened the nut down. We were able to tap it and save the threads though.
I can’t get in the original bolts back in fully they’re about 3mm to high would that be acceptable was thinking of doing a rubber washer
My engine mount is blown on my mk3 focus and I get some shudder when taking off in 1st, but only when the car is hot (manual gearbox). Do you think there might be a link? Thanks!
Yes I could see a bad motor mount causing some shutter
I get clunking through gear changing can this be bad motor mounts
I see aluminum threads there, is Any specific torque is required, or just tie it?
Torque specs are in the description. As I stated in the video, make sure that those studs are fully threaded into the aluminum before you torque the nut down
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Amazing job, thank you.
@@metatronmen2431 no problem! Glad to help out
Could this be the source of cabin vibration in general?
Is it possible to produce steering wheel vibrations while driving? I have a problem on my focus 2007, between 120 and 130 km/h the car vibrates like hell. All of my wheels where equilibrated but the problem persists. Thank you
Yes a bad motor mount in these Ford focuses will absolutely cause shaking in the steering wheel. But so can Tires, suspension and other problems
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow thank you for the answer. Tires are new and not budget, I just past the German inspection (Wich is very meticulous) and it was all good so probably the suspension is good... I hope is from that engine mount. With respect
@@sikfieni no problem and good luck getting it rectified. Let me know how you make out
what if the vibration is at idle and while driving as well? its a very small annoying vibration
Where can I get a replace bolt for the motor mount the hex bolt
My focus is vibrating alot recently, so I changed the transmission and rear motor mount, the engine mount I didn't change it because it doesn't look bad or anything, it doesn't have oil leaking, but the car even with the 2 new mounts is still vibrating alot, could the engine mount be the cause of this? My car has 47k miles.
It's the engine mount. Very common problem on these. Sometimes they look completely fine but internally they are faulty. You will be blown away when you put the new one in. Let me know how you make out
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Awesome, I'll do it!
Yes!!!
great video! Is the new bushing soft to touch?
Thanks. And yes the top of it is. It's a hydraulic motor mount
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow cool thx. Thought mine was gone
OK thanks bubba
"Sorry if I went too quick for you." ... I was really looking forward to a 20 minute video where first you BS some, then spend a few minutes getting the camera adjusted, and finale with off-tangent shots and explanations. /s
Haha, yeah that's not my style. A lot of time people comment on my videos and say I go too fast though so I've been trying to slow down a little bit
I may be overthinking it but I tried replacing the insert and may have botched it lol 🤦♂️🤦♂️
My motor mount on the engine side was bad and making my car drift on the passenger side
Mechanic told me it broke for launching the car too much, lol
Yeah that'll do it!
Fail for not showing how to put it back but thanks
No problem
are you sure this is 2014 model? it look like 1980
lol
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow hhhh engine bay so dirty and neglected
