Just took a look at my under rear engine mount that when you called the transmission mount. Mine looks pretty messed up but I'm fairly new to working on this car so so glad I found your channel thank you so much.
I have another friend with a smart he told me I should have took off bought mounts at the same time then lower the the engine to get the air box out..lol I said when I called you, you didn't answer lol
Greetings, I have a 2009 451. My car has 95,000 miles on it now, bought it used. I shopped on Amazon for parts and it was a nightmare. Rock auto ROCKS for parts for these cars. They have all three mounts in a kit. So the 1st. Mgt. you replaced is called a torque mgt. according to Rick auto. I have not had other mgts. replaced yet but I can say that the transition doesn’t clung going into reverse and it is shifting in Auto much better plus I’m getting better gas mileage. Up to 43.99 per gallon. Up from 37. I also use additive Marvel’s mystery oil and that helps. So I’m excited to see the changes once I get the other mgts. replaced. It should be like a new car. Also had to replace Tires, struts, shocks, and rear window struts. It’s been a major repair job. Oh PSS. I got window struts OEM.. At Rock 28.05…. Mercedes was charging 139.99 for same items. Crazy for sure. Hope this helps….😊
Thanks for your reply‼️Another trick I learned is to take the clutch actuator off clean it and spray 3n1 oil in it and put it back on. I had issues where it didn’t go into reverse so this helped and another time I had the same issue so I looked at a different video and they said to lift up the shift console and there is a yellow lever that you can push up on and it releases so it will then shift into reverse. I also had issues with the alarm going off at night 5 or 6 times or so. Found out how to stop that. When you turn the car off hit the car icon on the dash so it flashes and you then have 60 seconds to get out and lock it.. IT WORKS. If you have issues with the interior alarm that goes off. I think this car was built either on a Monday or Friday. Tooooo many crazy things that happen to my Smarty Pants… LOL LOL. It’s been a learning experience.. if I could work on it I would. I did however change both air filters…ALL BY MYSELF ‼️‼️ Hope this helps as well. You never know. Also Smart Maddness in California or Texas will help with issues as well and they have parts and accessories and they are very helpful‼️‼️😃😃
@L Moell Wow I do have a little bit of a problem going into reverse it takes a little bit. And the other problem I have it will sometimes unlock the door with the keyfob button, not a big deal ...lol
Great job!!! I like the way you improvised with the removal of that Bolt under the airbox!!!😊 I have to do two of the mounts by Thursday. The one on the right and the one under the car. What was the size of the E sockets that you used under the car? Thanks, for your great video! 😇
How did you notice the mounts were bad? My engine shakes at idle and over 55mph, the car shakes quite a bit. I’m trying to figure out if this is from my engine mounts or something else.
@@ByrdsRebuilds This will come in handy when my new mounts show up. I bought a really nice 2013 Passion a few weeks ago with 49,5xx miles that was owned by an older couple. I've always noticed a slight vibration at idle, and a noise coming from the intake scoop that has a regular beat to it, that matches the idle RPM and slight movement of the engine. I thought it was the intake plenum that was vibrating, but I yanked that out, put a silicone intake on it, and it still makes the noise. I'm guessing the bottom mount is broken, so I just ordered a set of all 3 mounts early this morning and figured I might as well replace all three while I'm at it.
Good video! Is it danger that not put a jack under the engine when you’re changing the front mount?😢 I think if it’s enough space to put a jack under the engine?
I ordered inserts from Powerflex. The inserts for the torque mgt./Engine mgt. are Polyethylene awesome made but don’t fit so I have a call into the Co. about the issue. It’s been an ordeal but I’m getting closer to getting the job done after over a month.
Ayyyy finally a video that shows all 3 mounts being replaced. Def needed this one.
I was looking for a video also and it wasn't one, it was a great opportunity for me to make one.
Just took a look at my under rear engine mount that when you called the transmission mount. Mine looks pretty messed up but I'm fairly new to working on this car so so glad I found your channel thank you so much.
Awesome, I wish I didn't sell my smart car.. if you have any questions, I will try to help.
I am now emboldened to start the job. Thank you sir.
Awesome thank you for watching
That’s what makes a good machanic ingenuity thinking on the go what ever it takes to make the job easier
I have another friend with a smart he told me I should have took off bought mounts at the same time then lower the the engine to get the air box out..lol I said when I called you, you didn't answer lol

Great info, thanks. I have loud rumble in a 2011 451 which I think is the engine mounts
excllent and thank you for not letting the cold weather get the best of you weldone
Thank you.
This was a very helpful video.
Hello ByrdRebuilds,
NICE video! I am struggling with exhaust on my 2013 451, but now will also check engine/trans mounts.
Thank you for your video!
Very informative video. What would be the torque for the bolts? (Chassis and engine)
Question. You're jacking your What from the center rear. Where are you placing the jack? I know this is an old video but hopefully you can remember.
I think it was the transmission

Yes you are about Rockauto I had picked up the struts from Rockauto.

I don't remember sorry about that

My smart car was shaking, and then I jacked up the car engine to see if the engine moved more than the car to tell if the mounts were bad.
Thanks!
Very helpful video, thanks for posting!
You are welcome

Thanks guy, very nice. What did you use as a jack point for the trolley jack?
Good video! Is it danger that not put a jack under the engine when you’re changing the front mount?😢
I think if it’s enough space to put a jack under the engine?
Yes I had a smell jack on the engine
@@ByrdsRebuilds Thanks for your reply. Maybe from the camera, I didn’t see that jack. You really did a good job!
good video!
Thanks bro for this video! May I ask you which size is the torx screw that you have in the first mount that you changed?
and i have found 2 on the right top , you and the other one is in Russian... lol [just turned the volume off and it was great!
I'd bet that if your kept the tube coming out of the air filter and into the intake manifold unwrapped, you'd get better gas mileage.

Awesome I was wondering if it will work
Lmbo. The right way.
Those mounts had smook 80k left in them that car goes half the speed of fart youd be all right.
Lol
Yo stop talking about random stuff. Get to the point. You could have made that video 10 minutes.
