Engine mount rubbers are specifically made to absorb the shock and vibrations coming from the engine. Usually, they are made of metal and rubber, with the rubber part absorbing the vibrations. If the rubber part is damaged, it's almost impossible to repair it because you can't just glue or tape it back together.
1. Disconnect the battery: Disconnect both the positive and negative terminals of the battery.
2. Place your car on the stands: Start by jacking up the car so it’s high enough for you to work under. Place the jack stands at the appropriate places under the car to ensure it’s well-supported.
3. Remove the engine mount: Locate the damaged engine mount. Depending on the model of your car, you may need to remove other parts to reach it. Take careful note of what you removed and how so you can replace everything properly when you're done.
4. Take out the bolts: Use a socket wrench to take out the bolts holding the engine mount in place. When you’ve taken out all the bolts, remove the mount.
5. Replace the rubber: At this point, you should be able to remove the damaged rubber material from the mount. Then, fit in the new rubber section, making sure it’s properly positioned to absorb shock just like the old one did.
6. Install the engine mount: Now you can put the engine mount back where it came from. Check the rubber to be sure it’s properly positioned before you align the mount with the bolt holes. Then, reconnect everything you’ve disconnected before.
7. Reconnect the battery: Finally, reconnect both terminals to the battery, starting with the positive follow by the negative one.
8. Dispose of Old Engine Mount Rubber: Used engine mount rubber pieces should be disposed of properly.
Remember, it's always safer to refer to professionals if you're not comfortable doing it or if the damage is severe.
