Hello,

I have a Honda Civic 2005 manual transmission. Some months back I got the front right stock mount replaced because it had broken. Even when the stock mount had broken I only felt slight vibration in the steering wheel, but since the mount was cracked I went for replacement. Upon replacement, initially the car felt great and vibration went away. But after a month or so, I started feeling grinding noise when I used to break in low gear or when going downhill and engine breaking were being used. This started to increase as I drove more and the grinding sound I used to hear in 1st and 2nd, started appearing in 3rd as well. Important point to note was that as soon as I pressed the clutch the sound went away even in low gears. Since, the problem was persisting I went to my mechanic and noticed that right side of engine (where new mount) was slightly lifted. Since, the most recent change was of mount I thought mount was problematic, hence got it replaced again. Again, the car felt great but now again after month or so I am facing similar issue?

My question are:

- is the issue purely related to mount and I need to find a good quality mount?
- could this be some other issue and maybe that is destroying or effecting the mount?
- is it safe to drive car in this condition or should get it fixed ASAP?

thank you for your patience and looking to hear some suggestions ‘.

that's the bearing

Thanks for the reply..... but I’m wondering why does it go away upon replacing the mount...... if it had been the bearing shouldn’t the sound would have consistent

Yep, input shaft bearing, trans has to come out and apart

if the bearing is bad or broken, shouldn’t the noise be consistent when gears are engaged?
