Motor Mounts question
Hello, I recently found a leak coming from the area around my passanger side lower motor mount and I wanted to ask if anybody knew for sure whether these motor mounts are hydraulic or not. The oil is kind of thin and clear/yellow so im not sure if it is engine oil or something else.
Also any recomendations for replacements if it is the mounts? Thanks |
No your motor mount isn't hydraulic. It's probably coming from your axle boot or something. I can't think of any type of oil that's yellow from the factory lol.
|
check your engine oil and your coolant, only two liquids that can possibly be yellow, and from what i remember our mounts are polyurethane and dont have oil in them.

You do realize the 350z has axles in the rear, not the front?
Yeah, wasn't thinking about that I was thinking about my old fwd car when I wrote that. Lol. |
You had me scratching my head for a second. I actually had a guy that works at a drag strip ask me if my car was FWD the other night. I couldn't believe somebody that is involved in motorsports would not know the 350z was RWD.
OP....sounds like fresh oil judging by your description, maybe a spill? Would be odd since its on the passenger side. I was thinking maybe brake fluid at first, but I cant see how it would have gotten there. |
Silvers post was as good, if not better than " check your headlight fluid"
:D |
lmfao ^

Must be my oil. I just changed the fluid so that explains why its clear still. I cleaned the area the other day so im going to check where it is dripping by. Only thing that comes to mind would be the oil filter housing because I dont know of anything else above that in that area that would leak.

brake fluid is yellow too lol.
