Driver side motor mount.

97 base, boosted.
Do these things have oil in them? We can't see a tear but the mount can be compressed by pushing down on the motor and there is oil all over the area. This mount has broke in the past and came completely apart.
I have found several aftermarket kits, but does anybody know where to get just this mount in a performance version?

You have two options.
1) buy motor mount inserts and just put them in. They can be used on broken or torn mounts it dossent matter. i would say put all the mounts in besides the rear mount if you arnt making to much power and dont want you whole car vibrating.

2) buy innovative tecnology mounts all around

When this thing broke before, sure looked like it had oil in it.
Cleaned off motor and he texted oil is EVERYWHERE again on that side of the motor. Oil level in motor is unchanged, it's perfect. It would have dropped with the amount of oil this sucker is leaking.

I believe the motor mount on the driver side is oil filled. Mine never cracked while I owned the car so I didn't confirm But I recall hearing storys about how expensive a replacement was from Honda.

The front and rear mounts do not. They are just rubber and you can buy ES motor mount inserts for the front and rear to stiffen them up. I'm not sure whats a good replacement for the Driver side mount.
