Mine required an extension reaching up to the back of the engine bay, as straight as possible, a 17 inch flex head ratchet, a pipe to increase leverage, one person holding the extenion top, and another person torquing the wrench. There was very loud "crack" when both nuts broke free. The vehicle was a 2010 EX-L and the mount had never been out.
harder and more expensive to get factory mounts now, then ever for these older Hondas. So I'm going to disable the VCM/Eco mode to hopefully end the bleeding and damage it causes to wear these mounts so fast. Thank you for this video. I was able to take of the rear using just my 17mm wrench and taking off the passenger wheel to use the assembly for leverage on the ground. Just saying work with what you got. I did order the wrenches which should get her today to help finish the other mounts.
This went a lot easier than the front for me as you don't have to reach down. Took a little over an hour. Only down side is having stuff fall in your face every time you touch/rub something. My old mount had so much play.
Hello, good video I have problems with the passenger side motor mount, one bolt rusted in the hole and broke, bad Honda design. Two bolts go into a sleeve and water get in and rusted inside the frame. I have to find a way to hold a bolt there. I drilled it out but threads may not be good. Also I drilled a hole all the way to the bottom of the frame and saw the sleeve is short inside the frame. I will make a threaded sleeve with a heel and open a bigger hole at bottom and bolt it. Cleared the existing thread hole and use a 4in. Long Bolt. What a mess to change the timing belt. 08 Odyssey Never had a problem before,,, comments??
I have take off all 5 -14mm bolts and both 17mm bolt but it won't come off or alow me to jack up the motor 1 1/5 in to get to get the mount Off? It Jack's the whole car?
hmong talk make sure the the jack is not hitting the frame and as your jacking it up and it’s only on the transmission. Also look around maybe you took out one of the wrong bolts and there still a bolt attached.
I have an 05 ex. Does mine have these mounts or is it just with the most loaded versions? How can you tell when they fail? I have a mystery steering wheel shaking at highway speeds that two new sets tires, alignments, control arms, tie rod end, Cv axles, stabilizer links, different wheels, can't stop the shaking.
00:45 surely that little ratchet at that angle didn't loosen those 12mm nuts.

Oh god… I’m about to try replacing this. Hope mine aren’t that stuck :/
Thanks for commenting how it went for you so I can mentally prepare.
@@kgkisten7632Good luck! And brace yourself.

How long did the cheap motor mounts last?
Is the 2011 to 2013 similar to this process?
Can you make video on how to replace rear mount for 2012 Pilot?
what are the ft lb tightening recommendations? or should i just be going as tight as possible?
40 ft lb on all bolts, 54 ft lb on the nuts ( better late than never?)
I change mine as well and its making a rattling sound when idle but mine didnt come with the rubber over the mount can that cause it
It’s hard to say with out seeing it. But it’s possible.
What is the rubber over the mount called?
Thanks so much for your time and great video .

The OEM Mount is around 500$ just for the parts. Labor is around 140$
Where is it available for 500 ish? $750-850 is the range I'm seeing for the real deal.
@@willyodell7802 install a muzzler 2 and then use passive motor mounts for an LE (cloth seats) model. way cheaper.
Just so you know it's way more complicated than this video
Is it do-able? I’m about to go for it
Not the rear one. The front is a bitch.
I replaced mine but now its making a tapping/ rattling noise when on idle
How much cost you the motor mount?
40 ft lb on all bolts, 54 ft lb on the nuts. (The manual says to replace all nuts & bolts.)
Good video!👍🏻

I also replaced everything. This is a very common problem with older Odys. Unfortunately I have the same issue and this issue is a torque converter.
Which 3rd party brands have you used that have failed? Ever try anchor?
Michael Isakov Honestly I cannot remember which one has failed on me. I try to use the factory ones whenever I can.
Do youvhave to do some reprogramming after installation?
No. No programming needed.
Thank you kindly for this informative video. You just save me time, flag rate life.👍👊
Mack Liporada Glad to help. Thank you for watching!
I bet it would be a bitch doing this job on the floor. In a garage with the car in the air looks and sound much easier
Focus is awful
