2008 - 2017 Buick Enclave Torque Strut Mount Replacement
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- This vehicle has a "clunk" noise and a noticeable shift in the vehicle when accelerating or on harsh shifts. A visual inspection found that the Upper Engine Torque Strut Mount had failed.
This is a common problem on these vehicle and it affects the 2008 - 2017 Buick Enclave, as well as the GMC Acadia and the Chevrolet Traverse.
I struggled more with getting the new one in than the old one out. Thanks for the tip about the notch on the bottom. Once I found the correct angle I just had to work it in to place. Didn't take a whole lot of force.
Really enjoyed this video. Very Professional step by step from start to finish. You were Awesome in your instructions. You didn't just start in the middle, you started from giving a good understanding of what you were about to do to disconnecting the negative cable on the battery first., then gave instructions as you talked us through this video, what to do, what not to do, the best way to do it from start to finish. Awesome. Thanks for sharing this video. Very helpful. You've convinced me I can do this myself.
Figuring out those black on black connector clips is to me the hardest part of any auto repair-thanks for showing those small details! Nice video.
Thank you for this video. This repair seemed daunting just from the idea of removing the fuse box and then literally taking an engine mount off.
I literally did the task in 1 hour without any surprises. And I didn't do the job properly by tightening the mount enough. So the second time took me 15 mins from start to finish.
A smidge under 50 lb/ft is enough to keep the mount stable
You're the best!
Thank you ! I have to do this job this weekend ! Gave me the confidence I needed .. and when the mount fell in place , we both thank the lord at the same time . Great job
You are one of the most patient mechanics I have ever watched. Thanks for the detailed experience.
Great video i just replaced one yesterday along with a motor mount. Found it was not lining up as easy so what it did was lift the engine from the bottom with a jack and it lined up perfect. Went in with ease.
Great video, much appreciated. Changed mine in about a half hour!
Most informative and illustrated R/R I've seen. You've got sub and like, thank you
This video probably just save me hundreds of dollars of labor charges! Thanks for the video!
Wow well explained and excellent visual I will change my upper torque mount Thank you! Well said and done !
Great video man. You did an amazing job of showing all the steps and this videos was a life saver for me🙏🏻
Best video I have seen so far very well explained thank you.
Very good job you’re great at explaining what needs to be done and how to do it thank you
Great video brother!! I couldn’t figure out why after replacing my motor mounts I still heard that clunking noise you mentioned
Great job explaining everything in great detail
This was spot on did it in a 2011 Buick enclave flawless thank you for the video
Thanks for the details on how to do this. I have to do this to our '16 Traverse this weekend, when the part arrives.
That was great - especially the fuse box removal. Thanks.
Thank you, it helped me a lot, I explain it step by step, change the piece without any setback thanks to your good explanation.
"Thank you Lord" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel you on that Bro. Sometimes we catch a break.
Gotta give him all praise .
Great video. Very helpful. Keep up the great work!
You are amazing my fellow wrench brother
Great video. Is it not necessary to support the motor from the bottom while replacing this mount ?
As others have said, excellent step by step instructions...
Great video . You did an amazing job of showing all the steps and this video great job thanks
Thank you for the excellent video. I see some tears in my strut mount so must be it. If it is in neutral it does not make the noise, or in reverse, just in drive while powerbraking
Thanks for the info. Fixed it in 25 minutes
Thanks. Really help me to replace the mount.
Thanks for the video. Good information.
Do you have any videos on the remaining mounts? I bought the set and with your help was able to change this one but have no idea how to change the other 3 mounts that came with the set.
Just found out I need one....what an awesome video!! Great job great detail...subscribed
Very explicit, great video.
Thank you 🔧🔩
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate this instructional video.
Thanks for the excellent video. Did you check the rear one to see if it was broken? The 3 hydraulic motor mounts down below also go bad after about 80k miles.
great advice.......despite the tapered connecting bolt, if I try hard enough it not impossible and I can cross thread the bolt.
Good video amazing explanation.
Well done video dude. Good job and thank you much.
Thank you. Great job! 😀
Just finished my 09. Video is stop on. Thx!!
Fantastic Video. Helped a lot.
You could be a good teacher Sir.
that was a very well explained video thank you so much
Thank you for your help
Great instructions, thank you
thanks for the help. great video.
Perfect video
it seemed you installed the arm upside down from the way it came out ? Great video and good camera work !
Great video now is there other mounts as well or is that the only one ? Thanks for your help
3 other mounts lower rear, front, transmission.
Thank you! Good informative video that is easy to follow.
Very detailed video after watching this even noob can fix it
Awesome man.
Good job thanks Ford this video
Excellent video!!
how long does this mounts last i still have the original in my 09 Acadia, just changed my front engine mount it was bad
very informative thank you. I just hope you didnt leave the oil cap off the whole time with all that dust floating around lol
Thanks for the excellent video
Thank you very much for the video this is saved me a lot of time I subscribed
Thank you so much for your time i love your video
Great video! Very detailed! I have a question. Do you have to lift the engine at all to replace this torque strut?
No, lifting of the engine is not required for this mount. This mount is used to keep the engine from moving forward and rearward at the top as it would tend to when driving.
On some, you might have to slightly rock the vehicle back and forth to shift the engine slightly to line up the holes, but that's not usually an issue.
Nice video good energy God Bless you
What brand torque strut did you use? It lined up very nice.
Thanks.
cool video really enjoyed it thanks for sharing.
Why not take the whole arm off? No need to fiddle with wiggling things around and wedging screwdrivers, take the mount off the arm outsode the bay. It's two more bolts...had take it off to replace the water pump the other day went way easier than what you went through.
Thanks
Would the Saturn Outlook be the same process? I don’t have the remove the tire and strut itself to do this?
Thanks for the video, but you did put it upside down
No, actually. When editing, I noticed the same thing, that the relief was on top when I installed it. I went through and you can see when I'm holding the new part that both sides are actually relief cut like that.
Thanks for the comment and I hope the video helped.
Great job
Great video! Can you do a video of the front motor mount?
Everything is good thanks for the video actually but you got a Ford cap
I replaced it and it still has a similar noise but not as bad could it be the strut itself
did you see the nasty oil cap? lol.... nice video and i do like the hat
Man.. I did this exactly as to the video, put everything back together making sure all pins and connectors line up and click close... Now chevy traverse starter cranks but will not turn on, again I checked every connector back and forth.. has this ever happen to anybody?
did you figure it out?
Great Video! Question my car has the same mount that is broken so I want to order the part online but I get different torques right upper or rear torque strut mount which one is the one you replaced ? Thanks
Strut mount
What size are the studs???
How many miles on it
What size sockets
in your opinion once you have the mount out could you replace the serpentine belt from the top ?
I am about to try this (replace serpentine belt and possibly the water pump while I have this off). Will let you know what I find!
@@clayberish6986 thanks
Oye compadre mecánico ese no es el único Moro modelo en crane no es el único caso del motor tiene 3 +
Whats the part number
Thats why you should have milwaukee tools
Very true. I no longer use or buy Snap-On cordless tools. I've switched to Milwaukee impacts and cordless ratchets. Thanks for watching and for the comment.
@@DIYAutoHomeschool Thank you for video helped me alot, im also milwaukee tools guy, just walk into a home depot.
The mount for the 2008 is way different
