At Meta Mechanics, we specialize in providing high-quality repairs for premium vehicles like the Range Rover Sport. Recently, we completed an engine mount leaking repair for a Range Rover Sport in Dubai. Engine mount issues can lead to vibrations, noise, and even damage to the engine and chassis if left unaddressed. After a detailed inspection, our expert team identified the root causes of the engine mount leak and took immediate action to resolve them, ensuring the vehicle’s performance and comfort were restored.
Issues Identified During the Inspection:
- Worn or Cracked Engine Mount: The main issue we identified was a worn or cracked engine mount. Over time, engine mounts can degrade due to heat, stress, and natural wear. A cracked engine mount allows engine fluids to leak, which can lead to excessive vibrations, misalignment, and damage to surrounding components.
Solution:
We replaced the damaged engine mount with a new, high-quality OEM-approved mount. This restored proper alignment, eliminated fluid leakage, and reduced engine vibrations, improving the overall driving experience. - Leaking Engine Mount Fluid (Hydraulic Engine Mounts): The vehicle was equipped with hydraulic engine mounts, which are filled with fluid to absorb engine vibrations. One of the mounts was leaking fluid due to a seal failure, which compromised the mount’s ability to dampen engine vibrations effectively.
Solution:
We replaced the leaking hydraulic mount with a new one, ensuring that it was properly sealed and filled with the correct fluid. This restored the mount’s ability to absorb vibrations and improved the comfort and performance of the vehicle. - Loose Engine Mount Bolts: Some of the engine mount bolts were found to be loose. When the bolts are not properly secured, the engine mounts can shift, leading to excessive stress on the mount and causing fluid leakage or misalignment.
Solution:
We tightened and properly torqued the engine mount bolts to the manufacturer’s specifications. This ensured that the engine mounts were securely in place, preventing any further misalignment or leakage. - Corrosion on Engine Mounts: The engine mounts showed signs of corrosion, especially in the areas where they were exposed to moisture and road salts. Corrosion can weaken the mounts, leading to cracking and leaks.
Solution:
We cleaned the affected areas and treated the engine mounts with corrosion-resistant solutions. We also ensured that the new mounts were made of materials resistant to corrosion, providing long-term durability and protection. - Improper Mounting Position: The previous repair had led to an improper engine mount positioning, which caused uneven stress on the mounts, contributing to the leakage. Misalignment can cause mounts to fail prematurely, leading to fluid leakage and increased engine vibrations.
Solution:
We repositioned the engine mounts to the correct alignment and ensured that all components were properly aligned to manufacturer specifications. This fix restored balance and eliminated unnecessary stress on the mounts.
