Mazda2 | Filled Engine Mounts

[@websurfer1585]

It's incredible how dramatic it feels when you change worn components, having got used to, and adapted to them over time.

[@lakiaristo6190]

Hey mate ended up filling a rear engine mount with sikaflex 252 made it alot stiffer on the automatic version mazda 2 only thing noticeable would be slightly better gear shifts So for all y'all who own auto version no point filling them just leave them stock I guess manual problem another story as explained in these videos God bless jesus loves you all praise him 🙏🏽👌🏽

[@gorifranka]

A very good alternative sealer is Sikaflex which sticks to steel and rubber. Very messy so gloves and acetone to clean after. Great videos mate enjoy watching you - greetings from Malta. I have 2014 Japan import Demio.

[@SkibbidyYibbidy]

Now this is something I need to do! Missed your videos man can't wait for more!

[@salamidealer]

Hey man, you’re one of the reasons why I got myself a 2014 Mazda 2 as a first car. Had it for 6 weeks now and am absolutely loving it! I was also going to buy the shortshift kit that you made a video on but the shipping to Germany is 50€ which is the price of the kit itself. Luckily this little beast has a really good shifter from the factory. Anyway I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy watching these videos, keep it up!

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Glad to hear it!

[@MR.Designs]

Dark Ice Designs is a uk based company that sells a short shift for the Mazda2. Just checked and they ship overseas. I have one on my 2011 Sport and it was just as easy to fit as the DDM one.

[@salamidealer]

@@MR.Designs Thanks for the tip, I just ordered one! :D

[@ChrisNLger]

@@MR.Designs mine comes loose even with loctite on the small bolts. Can't recommend it!

[@johanbronkhorst1030]

Like your vids a lot, keep it up. I also did the main mount a while back on my 09 mazda 2, but mine was completely shot with the oil running out. So I took it and tore open the bottom, drained all the hydraulic oil, let lay in degreaser for a good couple of hours and then filled up the whole thing from the bottom. Worked amazing!

[@Hilly1980mark]

Wish I watched this before spending a lot of money for shipping to 🇬🇧. Great little mod for great improvement

[@maxyork5651]

thanks for sharing, I did same thing to lower arm ball joint since 2 years and it still in good shape, especially where I live roads are not in good shape. Thanks.

[@boatymcboatface666]

Awesome to see another vid! I'm the guy in New Zealand with the 03 Demio. Loving the uploads.

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!

[@John.Skelton]

DUDE! YOUR MAZDA 2 SOUNDS SO BADASS! 🤘💀🤘

[@JonJordanHD]

I've had my 2 for 3 weeks now and I just installed the DDM short shifter and shifter bushings. Made a word of difference! The AWR mount is next but my upper MM is rattling so the timing of this video is brilliant. Any word on when the other mounts will be available from AWR?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

No idea on a timeframe. They just moved into a new building so I’m sure they have plenty on their plate right now.

[@jaggeneradores]

hello, where did you get the gear lever bushings?, did you buy them or were you able to disassemble them without breaking them, thanks for any help

[@Volcom_StoneD]

I am making the new mounts like yours ! I don’t like ‘lag ‘ 😂 Great video ! Great job !

[@darwinb718]

thanks for the vid. my mazda 2 is old enough to do all the things you've shown... i had the repair estimated and it's way too much for my wallet... thanks!!!

[@robbaker9817]

Thanks mate . Wish you made this before I brought my AWR and shipped it to Australia

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Could still do the other two, though.

[@task82]

Always love seeing your content!! When did you put those Hella lights on? Some more info, or even better a video on them would be awesome!! Keep up the great work mate :)

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

I’ve had those on for almost a year. I didn’t feel like making a video about it at the time.

[@jbrewphotos79]

Holy shit the God himself uploaded again!

[@TheSami0123]

Thanks for the video and all the tips, i was wondering for a while to do it, since for me to get an AWD its to expensive.. So I really apreciete the Video🙌😊

[@bosanovaboy]

Thank you for the video. Question, as I saw in in other videos, the Loctite makes the car vibrate more at idle, where you able to notice that too? Thank you

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Stiffer mounts equals more noise and vibration translating to the cabin, so yes.

[@kiddoshare]

Keep up the videos!!!! I love them!! I keep sharing!

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Appreciated! Thanks!

[@nickcolmer2514]

So I have a 2014 Mazda 2 with the automatic trans. What are some of the mods you have on your Mazda that would make the automatic a better driving experience? Glad I found your channel! I’ve been wanting to start putting mods on my mazda2

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

You can do anything to an automatic 2 that you can with a manual that isn’t specific to the transmission. Personally, I wouldn’t modify an automatic 2 very much because at the point to which I’ve modified my silver one, I would miss the manual. The green one remains stock and it’s still fun to me. I have fun hucking it around on dirt roads, I don’t slow down for rail road crossings in it, and dumb stuff like that. Just putting it in D and doing reckless stuff is fun enough for me in that car. If anything, I might freshen it up with some Fiesta suspension for a tiny bit of lift and get some aggressive tires, but that’s it.

[@Davox05]

Hi Nick, i have a question for you, have you noticed that your car shakes way more when it’s in D and pressing the breaks pedal? I bought the 3 OEM mounts and still got the issue, don’t know what to do… :(

[@ThePolarBearProductions]

I’m gonna say, “Mystery Tube Of Loctite Stuff” from now on

[@robertadams3125]

Just found your KZbin app . great that's it's in English.

[@aleexcacaine1]

which screen is the one you have on the left? I have a smaller one. is that sold separately?😮😮😮

[@louieanderson2847]

Man, thank you so much! God bless you!

[@ged2529]

Do you like the projector headlights we got on some Mazda 2's here in the UK? Got a set here with the harness bits if you were interested, ours also have a levelling switch to dip them if you for whatever reason have alot of weight in the back of your 2 but you probably dont need it. Dont know what shipping would be like though.

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Shipping would probably be more than I’m willing to afford at the moment, but I would love a set of projector headlights for each of mine some day!

[@rancosteel]

Can you show how to install a windshield washer tank?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Remove the bad one and installation is the reverse.

[@TMOcheechondabeat]

Just like my problem thank u🙏

what about noise and vibration? can you compare both of them?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

More than stock. About the same as if you had all solid mounts.

[@markone6861]

Subbed just bought a 2007 Mazda Demio

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

[@clutchymaster151]

Is thier something that dries faster? I can't have my transmission hanging for 5 days

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Maybe.

[@K03sport]

plans for a lightweight battery?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

Nope. I sold the car last year.

Hi again. Still you have that engine mounts on the car? Did u check if are still glued? In to another video,you change it the rear mount. So...please tell me if it's work for a long time with that. Thank you in advance

Right side Inner tie rod needs replacing.....

[@gerardoarriaga8200]

Did you replace your 3 engine mounts at the same time or replace them one by one?

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

At the same time.

[@enriquemartin3628]

I just replaced the passenger side one today by itself. Do not reccomend as it causes the whole engine to vibrate. Ordered the other two parts and will put them in this week.

[@SCP-117]

The stock rear mount is super expensive too!

[@octopuscardoor]

>ooo that's hot Yeah, I know that feeling.

[@je2fe2]

Do you think a solid dog bone mount might help with a crunchy 1st to 2nd shift? I have to wait a few seconds before gearbox is ready for 2nd. It doesn't grind, just feels a bit coggy. Thanks Mr Hiroshima

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

A few seconds sounds like a bad synchro to me. It might help, but if it’s actually multiple seconds, you might have bigger problems.

[@je2fe2]

Just curious....I have a 2012 M2 and am wondering about engine longevity, assuming regular oil changes and sensible usage. Mine has the 4-speed manual.

If you take care of your engine, it is designed to last 300k miles without needing to be rebuilt.

how the condition right now, is it still hold strong, pls comment

[@אמיראבני-נ7ס]

Hi , 1)For a stock 2011 mazda 2 ,doesn't it make the car very stiff? 2) Doesn't the engine need support when changing this mount's?

[@brokenshellzgaming7867]

Hey can you please answer. Do you have to prop up the engine to remove the side passenger mount or will it be ok. (Don't want to leave the car in the parking lot with the jack underneath for 24 hours.

[@HiroshimaSpirit]

I wouldn’t leave it unsupported for more than the time it takes to replace the mount, frankly, but if you must, definitely support the engine and gearbox with a jack.
