Engine/Transaxle Mount Neutralizing

An abnormal vibration can be caused by a component, such as an engine/transaxle mount, which is acting in a rigid manner because of a distorted or twisted mounting position. As a result, the mount does not absorb vibrations as it should. To neutralize the engine/transaxle mounts, use the following procedures:
1. Loosen, but do not remove, engine mount fasteners.
2. Start the engine and apply service brakes.
3. Shift transmission through all gear ranges, then to NEUTRAL.
4. Stop engine.
5. Retighten engine mounts.
6. Road test.
