i officially will start calling the dealership..stealership from now on. i go get my oil change and tell them about the squeking noise i hear when i go over bumps and make turns sometimes again and tell them a lot of ppl from max.org and 6thgenmax.org complain about it also and some say its the motor mount. so they did the oil change and looked at the motor mount and the guy tells me theres a problem with them and its goin to cost $850 bucks!!! he said he can help out by makin it $750 instead. im so ticked off cause i complained forever bout it and they find the problem now that im over my warrenty 36k, 52129k. guy looked up my prior history and even though i complained bout it he said theres nothing there that resembles me complain bout the squeakin noise. is there any help any1 can give. ahh im ticked off

 

If you have your prior paper work and it states the same concern from before when you were in warrenty and it says no condtion found and now your are out and the problem is mysterisaly there now. Then you have a case with either the sevice manager or Nissan USA.

 

Buy aftermarket MMI's and install them yourself.

 

If he doesn't even want to change his own oil, then what makes you think he'd want to do MMI?

jkjkjk I'm sure the weather is having part in that...

 

True. But he could also look for an independent shop and get a quote. 2nd opinion FTW

 

if he's still covered by his powertrain warranty then i beleive the mounts are covered by that 5/60. If i'm not mistaken i beleive i read it in my owners manual, but i have an 05 even if you maybe 04 you said you have 52k so check another dealer or read up your owner's manual warranty suppliment.

 

nmexmax-lookin into it, but im not familiar with mmi at all so if u could recommend a brand or website that would be cool. also ur 2nd idea i'll try out 2

prjctmax-its a free oil change, too cold to change my own oil

fcoral05-i'll check it out

That's the place that the 6th genners buy all of their little goodies from

 

ahhhh now my service light went off. autozone said the code is u1000, any1 know what the hell that means?

 

what the hell does the motor mounts have to do with squeking noise over bumps and turns? does your car shake at all? I know i've heard some squeking when turning
or mybe over a bump.

But thats only when it's very cold i don't need motor mount my max is smooth as butter
if i were you i'd get a second Opinion i have 40K on my car

 

wait. how will MMI help if the motor mounts are blown? if you install the racingline motor mount inserts on blown mounts, will the inserts just break after a while?

 

Typically a blown mount refers to the insert inside the housing. It's very rare a mount 'housing' will 'blow'.

 

ok...still havn't got a real answer. how can i check if my motor mount is bad/what website can i get the part? answer would be appriciated asap thnx in advance

 

you can check the way i know which is have someone stand infront of the car with the hood open and power brake the car "that's hold the brake down and give the car gas with in in drive "and if the engine is lifting from the front excessevly then your front mounts are gone and do the same with the car in reverse and if the back of the engine lifts then your rear mounts are bad. You can put your car on a lift and see if you have oil at the bottom and if you do then you can trace it and see if it's comming from the mounts. Back in december when my front mount went i was on the pkwy and i steped on the gas and i felt the car give a big jerk but i did not pay any mind to it and the next morning when i got to work i decided to look under the hood and i saw a lot of oil to the front of the engine under the dipstick area so i called up my dealer and ask them if i can bring it in and later in the day they told me it was a front motor mount. Did not even have 25k on my car as yet. You have to remember i think we have 2 hydraullic mounts whick are oil filled and i think 2 regular mounts. Give it a shot and see.

 

Remove engine from mounts --> inspect. That's how you find out for sure.

 

ONLY A MORON WOULD STAND IN FRONT OF A CAR THAT IS POWERBRAKING. HAVE THEM STAND TO SIDE.

 

Maybe he's a moron

 

hey idiot you don't know me so don't go calling me a moron i made a mistake and said infront but it really should be to the side like was stated but and i've also seen silly comments made by you so check yourself first ok. To the original poster you can give it a try standing at the side and see if it works.

 

I'm not that one that called you a moron in the first place.

 

yo manny you were wrong. my fron engine mount IS bursted LOL. and you said they couldnt be. i didnt even bother checking the rear.... im gettin new polyurethane mounts next week though.... hmmm starting to doubt your car knowledge.. first the relearn stuff now this!!!! lol jk. your the man.

 

I never said they weren't, you ask me if your mounts are busted, , I was throwing a wild guess across the country without any pictures. As far as the WOT self learn stuff, your cars have it, mine does not.

 

that was a cheap shot.

 

Not really. Our (speaking from a 5th gen POV) cars aren't smart enough to have it. Your WB's > Our NB's

 

i just found out today from my dealership that my front motor mount is cracked.

I was hearing a rough idle and the car was shaking during idle/stop phases.

They said i need to get it replaced and it would cost 290.00 to replace the front MMI.

I never heard no squeaking during bump or turns. So you may want to get a 2nd opinion and price check.

 

Went in last week for my tranny service. Left with a tranny service and a new front motor mount..total $522.

 

just go with poly bushings and have em intstalled and be done with it. i got a good price. just shop around

 

you guys mind sayin where u from and if its a nissan dealership+their labor rate so i can show the dealership

 

shesh I paid $153. for the front motor mount

$148. for the Rear tranny mount

Brought Racing Lines MMI's

 

Im from AZ and if you go to abcnissan.com, you will find the service phone number. Call them and ask them how much to replace the front MMI.

total with part, labor, shop fee and tax = $305.00 but they are willing to lower the price to $290.00

 

$850? Uh yeah..no. That's a little pricey to get your mounts replaced.

 

Sweet...I know a few people I may ask for 'help' in determining if my motor mounts are bad. Hey, will u just stand here for a sec and don't move? Muah haha!!

 

After the rear sway bar is installed, this will be the next project

 

how difficult is it though to do it yourself? and where is a good website or place to get it from?

There is a thread someone just posted in and it seem like a pain in the butt.

 

i remember some1 else mentioning the racingline mmi but then after that some1 else said those are only inserts. not that actual motor mount

 

Yeah they are inserts, Sorry . Thought thats what you were asking.

 

no. thnx for the help though but im actually looking for motor mounts

 

been a while but just realized i still need to replace these. can any1 actually give me actual link or place to get motor mounts from? or should i just go with the dealership and hope for a cheap price?
