Man, thank you for putting this together. I dig your workflow. This is year 21 of owning this vehicle, bought new in 2000. Many years of digging through Honda forums and TH-cam, in conjunction with a legit shop manual, has kept this beast alive. 335,000 miles on a damn good car. Thanks again for your work.
Mine just hit 300k no noises!!
Wow that's like 4 power steering pumps worth of ownership.

Really 182K 19 years still on original PS pump
246,000 and it's 2023 had it since 2010
What a Great Car . It's like driving a go kart 😂
I had to watch this video because there's only like two or three videos of them actually doing all three months plus the transmission mounts. At least she showed us what to do in Buenos an interaction wish me luck I'm doing mine tomorrow.
THANK YOU for doing this walk-through, it gave me the confidence to do these mounts myself.. an independent shop wanted $500 for just the labor - i can't imagine what the dealer would charge!
Dude good job for showing us you did a good job showing the rear mount.
Just video I needed. I needed to know the process for just that rear mount, but you got them all. Not the best angles, but just enough. This is the most complete motor mount replacement video for this vintage Accord/TL. Thanks!
Pro trick: you can watch movies at InstaFlixxer. Been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.
@Daxton Elliot yea, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
This is by far the best , most in depth video I have ever watched!! And with out one cuss word. This guy is super Pro. Thank you
I have 2000 Honda Accord V6 and this is perfect! I did the motor mount by the Power steering reservoir, was simple to change. Now I see the others are do-able, a lil tough, but nothing like brain surgery! Thank you for the video and your efforts to help us DIY'ers!!
The best video yet that I have viewed on replacing the motor mounts for a V6 Honda! Thank you very much for sharing.
Wow, I have a lot to say about this video, all positive!!
First, I have almost 20 years experience working on cars and was taught by my dad who when we started had 25 years experience as a mechanic, and now has 20 more years as an engineer! Also, I have a degree in mechanical engineering specifically because I wanted to work for Honda, designing engines for them.
Second, I have owned Honda’s for years and have worked on them for years. I have had my 2001 v6 accord for almost 3 years now and it has yet to hit 140,000 miles! Anyway I love the car and work on it all the time. In fact a couple weeks ago my dad and I replaced most of the front end steering suspension components like bushing and tie rod ends and stuff like that.
So the next project is these mounts, hence why I’m here, and I have to say that out of ALL the videos I have watched on how to fix a car, this is the most comprehensive and detailed. I love the dedication.
Installing parts while holding a camera is just incredible!! Hats off to you, I know I would have difficulty and I saw you struggling as well. But where I would have set the camera down, you just kept pushing!!!
I highly appreciate you telling us what tools we need for each section, as I always prepare my tools before starting a job. This makes it a lot easier and takes the guesswork out of it.
Overall, 9.8 out of 10!! I don’t know how it could be better, but we can always improve😉😂
Thank You for the positive feedback I really appreciate it. I'm glad I could help you out. Bought this Honda for my daughter for $700 so it needs a little work. Hopefully, you have subscribed to the channel because I have a few videos on this car with more to come.
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!
I'M NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO DOING THIS JOB!! It will definitely have to wait until cooler weather arrives in north Texas.
Thanks so much for sharing this video with all of us.
I told my wife when you finish this job there must be a great moment of triumph that falls on you! 😅😅😅
You are the real MVP for all the effort to make this video lol
Just did the passenger side mount on my daughter's 2095 Honda Accord. What a difference! The mount was shot and the engine would lift right up in the passenger side. It's better now, but I think the back one will need to be replaced, there is still some front to back movement.
I just want to say thank you for making this video! I was able to change all my motor mounts on my 2000 Honda Accord. My is not nearly as nice as the one you worked on in this video. I also watched the other video of how to change the timing belt! Very informative! I just performed that on my car as well. It is the fourth time it has been changed. Every 100,000 miles right? I’m at 411,104 miles and still running strong.
Thank you for this video! Doing the same job on my sister's car and this helps immensely. Appreciate you taking the time to help others!
Great video. I had done this twice before over the years and I really like your confidence and method. Gives me inspiration to tackle it again. Many thanks.
Clear Video , very patience , even I only need passenger mount , I believe this is the only video that don't need the cruise control taken out , awesome job , thank you for the video. I hope this is the same with my Honda accord 2000 V6 . Very helpful to me , God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the comments, glad I could help and yes this will be the exact same on your 2000 honda accord.
I appreciated for your info
Thank you for taking the time to record this video. It has been a tremendous help to me.
Thanks I appreciate the positive feedback
Thank you brother the step-by-step instructions made my job easy!
Thank you man your videos are.gonna help me alot for my car its exactly the same
Great camera work and instruction
Excelente vídeo!!! Tengo un 2.4 y me quiero cambiar a un 3.0. Lo revisé y lo primero que debo cambiar son los soportes. Al ver su vídeo tan fácil y bien explicado, me anima para seguir adelante. Buen trabajo amigo.
Great video. I enjoyed your calm demeanor also.
Bravo and now I know why I'm dreading this job. That 1/4" setup for the rear mount belongs in a trophy case or something.
Thank u for taking the time to make this. God bless you and ur family
Looks like a headache but one I can handle just f.y.I mechanics charge $450 bucks to do this job- so this video saved me some$$ thanks a bunch:)
You are absolutely amazing for making this video, you helped me do mine. thank you so much!
Superb video. Really appreciate it.
One question: what prompted you to replace them? Did you simply notice they were shot? Rattling? Other?
Thanks man, the biggest issue was when I put the car in reverse you could just feel that clunk and the motor shifting from side to side.
thank you so much.very informative video i am going to do it on my 99 accord for the 1st time.
I did the other 4 mounts yesterday, gonna do the rear today. I stared at it wondering if I can get it out without removing the bracket, wondering if I can Jack the motor enough to clear the stud. I'm assuming even if I clear it, there will be no room to get the mount out with the bracket bolted to the block. Is that correct? The other 4 mounts are in but free from the brackets
Watching you and other TH-cam mechanics, I'm convinced the mechanic will evolve into a one handed mechanic. TH-camr mechanics do all their work with one hand and the other is holding the camera. 😆
Vary informative video. I've watched this video over and over doing exactly what you did and now I'm on the back motor mount onto the bracket connected to the motor. For some reason even though I'm doing everything your doing exactly the back motor mount bracket won't align properly. The back bracket ist close enough to the motor to properly align even though I've done everything you've done
That’s weird. Is the new motor mount exact the same as the old one? Are you able to leave all the mounting bolts lose so the motor mount is still able to move and see if it lines up then just to get the bolts started at least?
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE the bottom part of the bracket where I believe two bolts belong are only few threads into the motor unlike the top two ( the long bolt and the first bolt that was instructed in the video are able to fully insert into the motor)... I know it's something minor I'm over looking but these are OEM parts that are identical to what I pulled out. The bottom two bolts that you do underneath the car on the bracket is the problem of alignment of the bolts and for some reason the bracket at least I think ist doing what it's supposed to for it to be on probably. Thanks for your time means a lot learned tons from your videos just learning on my first car
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE i figured out it was that I needed to start the bolts in sort of the same order as you did during the video.
What I did was start with the highest bolt on the bracket you started with in the video than did the vary lowest bolt next. I tighten those two than moved on to the long bolt and the one under the long bolt. Tighten the highest and lowest bolt more than the other two on the passenger side of the bracket until the other two can twist in until locked in. I kept looking at the bolts and if one was crooked I tightened every other bolt until that one that was crooked looked straight than I moved to that one and the next one nearest. Than I triple checked everything and now my car feels much more smoother in each gear and even at idol. I've also did the front suspension from your videos as well. Thank you for your Amazon link and time to make detailed videos like this. Hope this helps someone
@@soulsoldier7776 good to hear you figured it out 👍🏻
GRACIAS POR LA ENSEÑANZA.... LO TOMARE EN CUENTA
Thank you. Much appreciated. Will definitely be looking forward to any other videos on this car.
Great video. Thank you!
Thank you!!!!
I was dreading having to do this job but you answered so many questions i had and made this job much easier to do!
Thank you!!!!
I need to replace the piece where the passenger motor mount bracket is screwed into, not sure what that piece is called. I thought you could help me figure out what’s it called.
Should just be called the upper motor mount bracket or torque mount bracket. I would check your local scrap yard because these cars are all over. Or check eBay.
Great video bro. I actually bought the same kit from Amazon a few weeks ago but I’ve been procrastinating. But now that I’m changing the timing belt and water pump this weekend, I’ll add the task of motor mounts along with it. Thank you
Thanks for the positive feedback if you need help with the timing belt I also did a step-by-step video on that as well.
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE much appreciated man. I’m pretty familiar with them but I’ll watch your video still. There might be a trick in there somewhere that I haven’t thought of.
How long was the complete process to replace all mounts? Overall, on a scale of 1 to 5, how easy or hard is this to do? 1 being the easiest and 5 being the most difficult?
If I wasn’t recording it probably would have taken I’d say a couple hours and probably a 2-3 hardest one is the rear mount
If I watch this video five times in a row will all of my 2000 Accord v6 mounts magically change themselves? Otherwise I get to swap the set out tomorrow. Excellent video of a challenging task! How long did it take you to change them? I'm hoping four hours time.
Thanks for the positive feedback. Yeah you should be able to tackle this within 4 hours. If I wasn't recording it I'd say it would have probably took 2.5 to 3 hours.
Man this video is so so awesome thanks alot
Thank you. I replace my back lower trans mount and have excessive vibration after. Like so much. I loosen the top mount but I think I forgot to lossen the lower front. What can be the cause of this horrible vibration? Thank you
Did you replace both transmission mounts or the engine mounts?
I replace my rear motor mount and Mr rear trans mount. My mechanic had already replaced transmission upper and lower front. So I did the other two I said. But more vibration than before
@@truejey7475 I’m not really sure what’s going with that. What brand mounts did you use? Also I’d just double check everything is tight. Did you replace the torque motor mount that’s mounted on the passenger side?
i have the same car v6 ex 3.0 thank you so much you save me money thank you
Man listen.... my niece just got the same car as a gift. Everything your replacing, I am too " from ur other vids". It started as a tune up and I have been calling her dad like sry but she needs ect... but its different when it your teenage daughter/niece behind the wheel. You wanna fix everything 🤣
It's May 2022 now and I have a 2000 V6 Accord sedan. The engine jumps pretty good when I put it drive with the brake on and then press the accelerator slightly. So I am pretty sure it's the very front engine mount by the radiator. Does this ENA kit from Amazon that you bought still hold up today pretty good? Not sure if you still have the car but just wondering. I have 360k mile on mine right now so no need for me to pay for the expensive OEM priced mounts. I like the kit you linked for only $69.99 which includes all the engine and transmission mounts. If this comment reaches you please let me know how these mounts are holding up today. Thanks for doing this valuable video too. Salute!
My son is now driving the car he has put id say close to 10k miles on it since I changed out all motor mounts and they seem to be still holding up no issues so far. As you saw in my video pretty much all the mounts except for the front one were trashed. These car are notorious for going through motor and transmission mounts. I was in the same boat as you because we had just bought the car for $700 and didn’t want to spend the money on oem Honda ones because we just weren’t sure how long the car would last but it’s still doing good.
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE Awesome. Thanks for the reply and update. I have to replace the mounts and most likely the front driver side lower control arm on mine. I have this creaking sound coming from the front driver side wheel section and I hear it at slow speeds and when I slightly turn the steering wheel back and forth. I hope it's the lower control arm since it looks like it's a little crooked where it bolts to the frame by that 2nd transmission mount. So far I only changed the sway bar bushings since I noticed one was missing a chunk when I was looking underneath the car trying to figure out what was causing that creaking sound.
Thanks for the video! You have some mad ugga duggas to be able to crack those bolts loose with a quarter inch man, kudos xD
That 17mm in the back has now broken 3 socket wrenches and 4 nut extractors I have now moved on to acetylene. It can’t be stuck if it’s liquid
What universal tool did you use for that front motor Mount back bolt
Universal socket also known as a swivel socket
Great detail!
At 25:52 the heater hose flow control, or whatever it's called, on my daughter's car is leaking right where the screw holds down the end of the cable. Possibly removing it and replacing a rubber washer or seal would fix it, but these days parts come as a package. I am going to need to get the actual name for that actuator or valve or whatever it's called.
It’s called the heater valve the rubber washer might work. Here’s a link to one like it on Amazon amzn.to/3kFJbOi
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE thanks for the info. It looks the same, but mine is a 2005 and Amazon says this is for ones up to 2003. They didn't show one for mine, but if the price is about $20, I would just replace it. Thanks.
21:14 why does it sound like someone is whistling Epona’s song from Zelda?😂
Pretty sure that was one of my six kids they are always trying to video bomb me.
Are those Keen boots?
What is the part number for the motor mounts?
Here’s a link to them amzn.to/43UvyeN
Does this apply for the 2nd gen CL?
Yes I believe so because the second gen cl had the same motor
U didnt show the back mount the fourth nut....how u took that one off
How did those Amazon motor mounts work?
They are still holding up my son took this car over and hasn’t had any issues. They actually are holding up better than I thought they would.
very good video
Good job
Great job
The 'challenging' bolt on the front mount? You cut that one out completely
No I was able to get it but just about broke my ratchet trying to break it free
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE i mean, you cut the footage of it happening. i clicked because i wanted to see you take that one out.
Thanks
great video! I watched one from like A-1 auto and the girl used barely any force breaking loose the bolts. YEAH OKAY!!!!! I know better chica! lol
Could you help me with my car??
What’s going on with it?
I got a Acura 3.2 TL(2002) Base Model. It’s been making a lot of noise when I drive. And some vibration. I think I need to do change the engine mount, but I don’t have the resources to get it done. Thanks for replying.
@@bhwan002 where you located?
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE I’m in California. Specifically Los Ángeles area.
Wait is no one going to question why there's a vacuume line on the motor mount
I think there has been a few questions on it.
I just can't believe you didn't replace the missing bolt on the side mount.
No I did like I said in the video it was missing one when we bought and the next day after doing this video I found one at my local salvage yard.

Bro, why you so weak?
Thanks for the video!
Nice job! Thanks!
