Another Passenger Motor Mount Failure - Page 2 - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 Forum / Mazda Atenza Forum

looks just like the mount i just replaced. so much play and definitely a sunk in post.
let me know how the other mount works! i'm convinced the new oem mount i just put in will fail soon. i didnt want to go awr either due to NVH so i'm hoping there is a better option. especially since i want to get a FMM sooner or later.

I'll be putting in my Anchor PMM from Rockauto in the coming few days. Based on my experiences with aftermarket OEM-spec parts, it is likely just a rebuilt unit you get from Rockauto etc. My Anchor mount looks like it was sloppily put together. There's epoxy all over the place that was obviously brushed on. Egh, we'll see what happens.

I'm wondering what the sure mounts for pmm and tranny will be like in street grade.

I recently had my pmm replaced under warranty (5000km). So it's oem again. I may be imagining things but I so believe it's failing again. Hopefully SURE releases their mounts soon.

I've had my Anchor for about 5k miles and going strong. For the price of one OEM we can buy three Anchor's, easy choice given how bad the OEM are

And how easy it is to swap out!

Has anybody changed out the stock tranny mount from one from Anchor?

Personally I have had no luck with the anchor mounts from RockAuto. The first one I purchased did not have threads deep enough into the mount and upon torqueing it down it turned the mount stud. I added some washers as spacers and was able to torque it down, but consequently the mount was bad less than a month later. The replacement I ordered from RockAuto had the same threading issue so I added the spacers from the get go, but this mount's threads stripped when I torqued it down. Im getting refunded and RockAuto has been very helpful with the situation. I have ordered another mount made by DEA. DEA actually lists a different mount for the speed6 and manual tranny 2.3l(A6495 instead of A6494).

You are referring the the Anchor TRANSMISSION mount I assume? Myself and others all have had no issues with the Passenger (Anchor 9182) mount...
