- When loosening the nuts of the No. 3 engine mount and the No. 4 engine mount bracket, the engine front cover and the transaxle stud bolt may loosen.
- Tighten the engine front cover stud bolts.
Tightening torque
7-13 N.m {72-132 kgf.cm, 62-115 in.lbf}
- Measure the projection of the transaxle stud bolts. (MTX)

- If the projection amount is not within the range, adjust the projection amount of the stud bolt.
- Tighten the transaxle stud bolts. (ATX)
Tightening torque
15-25 N.m {1.6-2.5 kgf.m, 12-18 ft.lbf}
CAUTION:- When supporting the engine and transaxle, insert rubber of appropriate size (approx. 20 mm {0.79 in} thickness) between the engine lifter and the oil pan, transaxle to prevent the deformation of the oil pan and damage of the transaxle.
- Secure the engine and transaxle using a commercially available engine lifter.
