lock Warranty Information keyboard_arrow_down
- Energy Suspension warrants its products against defects in workmanship and material for 7 years or 750,000 miles when used on passenger cars and light trucks. Products that have been abused, altered, or incorrectly installed are not covered. Energy Suspension will replace defective products or component parts, if inspection for factory personnel determines the part to be defective. Warranty replacement covers only the product. Labor claims, time loss, or freight charges will not be honored.
Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts
Energy Suspension's motor mount inserts are crafted out of Hyperflex polyurethane, a material much more durable than rubber that can handle the intense weight, heat, and pressure. Designed to fill the voids built into your OE motor mounts, these inserts will drastically increase the power transfer efficiency from your engine to the wheels. Since the voids were initially put there to reduce NVH, it stands to reason that filling in those voids will have the opposite effect. Installing Energy Suspension's Hyperflex motor mount inserts may increase your NVH, but the increase to overall performance is worth it to some drivers. To top it off, all of Energy's motor mount inserts are covered by a two-year warranty handled in-house here at DST.
The OE Motor Mount
OE motor mounts are usually made out of metal with holes strategically placed to keep most of the engine's vibrations from traveling to the cab. While the OE mounts are decent for the daily driver, the weekend warrior or straight up racer will probably look for an upgrade. Purchasing entire motor mounts can be rather pricey, but what other choices do these drivers have? Energy Suspension's Hyperflex Polyurethane motor mount inserts offer the performance boost of a solid motor mount without the higher cost.

Honestly, I hate these high-rated poly mounts lol.. my axles vibrate and knock too loud. Editors Note. This kit is a motor mount insert. The inserts fit into the voids of the OEM Mounts. Since it fills the voids the engine vibration will be felt. It is almost like installing a solid mount. The plus side is that the engine and trans will stay in place when mashing the gas. Especially with vehicles with power adders or modified engines.
verified_user Verified Buyer - Eddie Gabriel - . Energy Suspension 8.1101 - 1 out of 5starstarstarstarstar" Very good "
This mounts were very easy to install, Im not a mechanic and I did this job with the right tools but without a lift or other of the professional tools that would have potentially made this job way easier but it doesnt take anything other than the regular tools needed to swap an engine mount to install these, completely plug and play and a perfect fit to the OEM motor mounts.\n\nNow, you know youve put these on because at idle the vibration is increased, specially if you like me install these at the same time you are changing really worn almost inexistent 210K miles motor mounts. The upside to that extra vibration is noticed when you press on the gas pedal and the car wants to pull away almost immediately as were before you could feel a slight delay, maybe, delay is the best word I could use to explain my experience with the behavior of the car now that I know how harder mounts feel, I hope you understand what I mean. I do not race my car. But the way I use my car, mostly commute to work, I like the difference it has made.\nI think theyre very good improvement.

Well worth the mod, the rear mount is the hardest to install, and some trimming to the inserts have to be done for proper fitment. Overall the car shakes a bit but its hardly noticable, but the throttle response on the car now is way better. 2 thumbs up from me!!!

- Question:
- Do you have Motor Mounts for the Pontiac Vibe?
- Answer:
The Pontiac Vibe was never tested fully for fitment. However they share the same platform as the Toyota Matrix. There for it could be possible that they share the same part numbers for replacement mounts. That part number is 8.1101 by Energy. This s would be at your own risk because this has not been tested by Energy.
