It is the same mount. I thought the crack was superficial and the whole piece appeared intact. Let me try to stab it with a knife... The CX-3 is front-heavy, the tire pressure is 36/33 front/rear. I am gentle on the pedals. I downshift to climb hills but that's not hard acceleration? Best 0-40...

What oil filter are you using? It might be worthwhile to cut open the filter to see if there are similar chunks in there. I thought particles of this size would have been caught by the filter. Can you to see if a standard magnet would pick up those chunks? If so, definitely use a magnetic drain...

I believe that is the passenger side upper mount. There are surface cracks at the top of mine (removed at 155K miles). The whole piece of rubber is solid. The pedestal shape (?) allows for quite a bit of movement. Among the 3 mounts, this is the only one that I can move with my hand. I didn't...

The two mounts accessible from the top can be done without a lift, if you can find a buddy to help out. If your buddy is low-profile, it is also possible to replace the dog bone at the center/bottom with jack and stands. The pictures I took aren't very clear. At the time I thought they were to...

The quote I got from a highly rated medium size shop for all 3 mounts was $1,250 (parts/labor as shown in the quote). I paid $305 for OEM mounts including tax. I have to check my earlier post to see how much time it took. I recall the transmission bottom mount and passenger side mount were...

If it weren't for you, we were gonna find out at what point the belt finally snaps and leaves me stranded, 190K or 200K... 😂 🙏 The transmission service was done last year. Shocks/struts and motor mounts were all replaced around the same time. I will ask the mobile mechanic to check on the VC...

Here is the og serpentine belt after 181,524 miles. The inner layer is thoroughly cracked. The outer layer is still holding strong. 😂 The water pump belt does not show any sign of distress. The mechanic said the tensioner wasn't leaking but the movement was not smooth. They completed the job...

This is the panel that fits securely with magnets (5mm thickness) bolted to 4 corners, and 3 rubber foam strips (6mm thickness) going from side to side. The strip in the very front is to prevent air from going straight under the panel and potentially lifting it off. The other two act as cushions...

Don't think it will ever slide forward to hit the wind shield but I have these pieces to secure it. O-rings are gaskets from the oil filter holder/cradle on my R56.
