Default What's the name of the top engine mount.

I've got a 2005 zx3. My engine mount is bad... What's the name of that top left mount. You know... That big one right infront of your face.

When determining left and right in a car, it is always from the point of view of sitting in the drivers seat. This is pretty much the industry standard.


So the passenger side mount would be on right side of the engine compartment since it's not based off of looking towards the engine compartment.

But to be specific the focus has only 1 engine mount and 1 transmission mount. There is a lower roll restrictor mount which is considered a transmission mount as well.

It's on the passenger side. You can see it right infront of your face. And yeah it looks pretty crappy to me.

You wanted the name of it. It is the "engine mount" since Like i said there is only 1 "engine mount".

Those aftermarket stock replacement mounts will break 10X faster that the oem part.

I've seen this on a few cars.
