PROs & CONs to INSTALLING Motor Mounts on YOUR 10th Gen Honda Accord!?!

Do motor mounts / engine mounts really add any benefit as a performance mod for modified cars? How easy is it to install motor mounts on your 10th Gen Honda Accord? In this video, I'll show you HOW-TO INSTALL the upper motor mount and rear motor mount using our project car, the 2019 Honda Accord 2.0 Touring. We will be installing a HASPORT rear motor mount (A62U Street), and a Honda OEM upper motor mount from a manual transmission Honda Accord. Whether you have a Honda Accord 1.5 or 2.0, 6-speed manual, or 10-speed AUTO, you may find performance benefits in installing an engine mount as a performance mod. It's said that engine mounts help in providing a more connected feel with the car... stiffer motor mounts allow a better feel, more communication between driver inputs and steering response, braking response, handling and acceleration. Supposedly, engine mounts help prevent wheel hop in a front wheel drive car, and improve traction - we'll leave that to a future video! However, installing engine mounts doesn't come without its CONS, which include an increase in Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) felt within the cabin of your Honda Accord. Let's find out if the addition of engine mounts is the right mod for YOUR 10th Gen Honda Accord!?!
Looking for ways to gain horsepower on YOUR 10th Gen (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022) Honda Accord 2.0 or 1.5 turbocharged car - this video / channel will give you the information you need to help you make an informed decision regarding the best modifications for your 10th Gen. Honda Accord 2.0 or Accord 1.5 project car!

I only run the upper torque mount from the 6spd. I would ditch the rear Hasport and go back to the stock OEM lower torque mount but keep the 6spd upper installed. That vibration with the more aggressive Hasport mount isn’t worth the discomfort and annoyance.

[@christianpadilla4406]

I love the shaking on my car. It feels like a race car! I’ve had mine for about 4 years now and love both upper and lower. Great video and break down!

[@TheLemonFactor]

Thank you 👍

[@Kevin-hLcYn]

Has there been any reduction in NVH since the initial install?

[@TheLemonFactor]

@Kevin-hLcYn - Yes, the NVH has not changed at all.

[@BigKandRtv]

I added Hasport top mount, but the rear is on back order. Pretty much the same experience. But I was getting wheel hop at the drag strip, so there is no going back for me. Also, I would call these torque mounts. The engine mounts are vertical. Lastly, the vibrations reduce when everything warms up. We will see what winter is like…

[@edwardapollo]

I have a 62A Hasport mount I'm not using and will legitimately sell it, let me know

[@savedby_grace6110]

PML has the rear 70a in stocks. I'm waiting for it.

[@ryanbass2354]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@edwardapollothis is the one that will fit a 10th gen 2.0 10 speed right? Are you still selling it?

[@edwardapollo]

@@ryanbass2354 Yes that's correct, and I am Get me your contact info and we can work something out 👍

[@BIOHAZARD_V2]

Good to know! As much as I like to drive spirited, I like that the accord is a quiet cruiser when you need it to be. Probably won't be doing this mod, thanks Chad!

[@TheLemonFactor]

I don’t blame you! It does feel sportier, but definitely at a cost 😕🤷‍♂️

[@jameskoopman853]

I have the 62a upper only, after a few thousand miles it quieted down somewhat. But yes, the vibration on cold starts and in reverse as well as lower RPM throttle is still there.

[@TheLemonFactor]

The low RPM throttle vibration is what bothers me the most 😕

[@michaeljacobs300]

Yeah guys the vibration is really annoying especially low rpm. Also when you turn on the air conditioning it’s pretty intense. I think the majority of the guys that use this also want that race car field. I did put the stock motor mounts back in my car Which is 490 to the wheels. I wound up going back to the motor mounts just because I had the front end was majorly lifting up off the ground I could physically see the front and lift. L O L so for me I wish I didn’t have to deal with the rattle but I put up with it just because of the performance perspective

[@MidnightAspec]

I’ll be honest: by 7:13, the footage drove me to grab a dosage of Dramamine. OMG that vibration!

[@TheLemonFactor]

🤣

[@JoseRivera-li8tr]

I did the top mount from the 6mt and was happy with the reduction in wheel hop. Im thinking of doing the 6mt rear mount as well

[@k20t559]

Does the 6spd fit and is metal like the top one

[@JoseRivera-li8tr]

@@k20t559 I believe so

[@silcas1882]

Yea, I did the Hasport upper about 2 months ago. The vibration is exactly how you described it Chad. I'm now also getting squeaking from the HUD area now, it's so annoying.

[@TheLemonFactor]

I’m sure the vibration will continue to loosen certain panels in the dash 😟

[@gregorydunn2716]

I am on the Hasport upper mount....only more vibrations on startup...i think its time to upgrade the rear as well!

[@TheLemonFactor]

Are you using the 62?

[@gregorydunn2716]

@@TheLemonFactor also...the harshness on startup is something that slightly mellows out...or you get used to...either way it is no longer as conspicuous as it was initially

[@jordanodom4439]

I just ordered both hasport torque mounts in 62a they will be here next week

[@TheLemonFactor]

Good luck 👍. Love to hear what you’re impressions are.

[@savedby_grace6110]

I have both, but from my experience, I'll be replacing the lower mount to a 70a one to reduce engine movement when suddenly accelerating.

[@LexmichaelQuimado]

I have a both 6speed upper and lower mount for my 10speed, and Honestly it’s I got no Vibrations at all.

[@765qwertyapple]

Chad nice video. replace the lower hasport mount with an Oem 6MT mount. no vibrations and feels better than the 10spd mount

[@TheLemonFactor]

Maybe you don’t even need to upgrade the rear mount to get the same benefits 🤔

[@kidnman4605]

how is the drive? does it feel more stable?

[@neilwalder4941]

We need MORE Accord KURO Turbo Videos!!!

[@aito8467]

You’re the 🐐 Thank you for all your videos!

[@TheLemonFactor]

😁👍

[@Kevin-hLcYn]

This is the exact upgrade I've been thinking about doing because in my experience having multiple Poly mounts makes for a teeth chattering experience. Some persons have reported that the NVH decreases after about 1000 miles or so with the Poly mount. My engine has a lot of movement. At cold start it rattles a lot shaking the whole car and when moving from park to drive I hear the mounts creak. I had my wife switch between Park, reverse and Drive while holding the brake and there is so much movement you'd think something was broken. I'm still thinking about it but I'll wait on your update, hopefully there is some sort of break-in period and the NVH will fall to acceptable levels. If I was the only one driving my car I'd pull the trigger and do it because I like the feeling you described, Chad. How much did the MT mount cost?

[@TheLemonFactor]

Sounds like your OEM mounts need replacing. I have not noticed any decrease in NVH, nor should there be. I’m going to guess that the reduction some people are experiencing is due to interior panels shaking out of the original positions into a new one that us not heard - not a good thing. The mounts themselves should not change after 1,000 miles.

Very helpful. Thank you

[@avaza1561]

Very helpful video thank you!

[@TheLemonFactor]

I’m glad you found it helpful 👍😁

[@AG-yv8yb]

Great video thumbs up. My stock 21 sport 2.0 is at 32k and noticed it has a crack in the upper. Its on the piece or bushing that connects. Now im thinking should i just get it replaced by warranty or is the 6mt not going to crack like the stock one for the 10 speed? Im a old soul so vibration and rattling aint for me.

[@Imurge]

damn chad, you with scientific wid dis one 😁👍🏾

[@TheLemonFactor]

😉😁

[@tsmith6585]

So would just changing the lower 6MT mount make a difference? I have a clunk and jerk when I shift my 10 Speed into drive. 🙆🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@TheLemonFactor]

I wouldn’t mess with the engine mount until you know why you’re getting the clunk and jerk.

[@david029014]

I have a 2018 honda accord, and I always feel wheel wobble at certain speeds its very faint. I have gottan wheel balance, wheel alignments, I even upgraded rims and tires and disc brakes, any idea what it is? sometimes i feel it when I accelerates, feels like a little gagging too.

[@MSN-82]

Most likely it's from the CV axles. BTW, they are consuming parts and they need to be either replaced or rebuilt at some point all depending on mileage, driving style or road conditions. Many people, don't pay attention to that.

[@david029014]

I felt this when I brought the car brand new, they told me they alp do it

[@MSN-82]

@@david029014 In this case, maybe it's a defective cv axle. It happened to me once, but it was a 2014 Mazda 6.

[@richardnguyen2927]

Thanks for the video Chad!

[@TheLemonFactor]

You’re welcome, Richard! 👍

[@mikhail1695]

I don’t understand. How just an engine mount can affect the sound and a throttle response ?

[@thisguyfuc]

It’s stiffer, the stock one is plastic the after market ones are metal, they allow more vibration therefor more noise.

[@azniikka]

Thank you for this video boss!

[@TheLemonFactor]

My pleasure 😉👍

[@nickc5341]

Thanks chad. Been waiting 3 months now on both my lower and upper mount. How long did you have to wait before you received yours?

[@TheLemonFactor]

Both were delivered within a week 👍

[@Honda.69]

I wonder if OEM 6MT lower mount creates less NVH?

[@TheLemonFactor]

Or if changing the OEM out even makes a difference 🤷‍♂️

[@TrungLe-tb2jj]

Sooo i have a 62a for my upper. Does upgrading the rear make a huge difference too?

[@helpingudrive4031]

My 21 Accord 2.0T Touring has me contemplating going back to OEM Style Mounts in my 08 TL Type S. Maybe I'm getting old, but the 62A mounts in that car have quite a bit of vibration. PRL recommends replacing a mount to install their front pipe on the 2.0T Accords, why do they?

[@TheLemonFactor]

I have no idea why PRL would recommend that 🤷‍♂️

[@AustinWoll]

PRL’s recommendation may be based on the reduction in size of the flex joint on their front pipe compared to OEM. So they recommend the upgraded torque mount for a reduction in engine movement in order to protect the exhaust parts from too much stress.

[@WubstepX]

Do you need a return label with that?

[@underdogg328]

Anyone looking to buy a new ktuner for Honda Accord 1.5

[@jeremiahclarin]

Would you recommend this mod chad for daily driving?

[@TheLemonFactor]

That’s a personal choice… it’s all about what you’re looking to get out of it, vs what you’re willing to give up. Personally, I’m still finding it annoying and embarrassing 🤷‍♂️

[@jeremiahclarin]

I will hold off for now. Lol ! As always, thank you for this video and I learn a lot from your videos.
