Toyota Hiace & Granvia Engine Mount Replacement Guide — Starring SAS
> Engine mounts, eh? They're the unsung heroes holding your engine steady, soaking up the shakes and stopping things from getting too rowdy under the bonnet, especially in a workhorse like your Hiace or Granvia. Give 'em enough stick, and the rubber gives way, leading to more noise than a flock of seagulls and potential damage.
Spotting the Warning Signs
• Feelin' like you're driving a massage chair?
• Clunking sounds when you put your foot down or back off?
• Got a mount that looks like it's been through a war?
• Engine movin' around like it's got a mind of its own?
WOF Woes?
Yep, knackered engine mounts are a surefire way to fail your WOF here in NZ. They reckon it's a safety issue, and rightly so.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking, mate, a few things to keep in mind:
• Safety First: Never, ever get under a vehicle supported only by a jack! Use proper axle stands – your life's worth more than saving a few minutes.
• Makes life a heck of a lot easier.
• Hand Protection: Those old engine mounts can be grimy. Grab some Nitrile Gloves to keep your hands clean and protected.
• Eye Protection: Flying rust and debris? No thanks! Chuck on some Safety Glasses to keep your peepers safe.
Bob's Two Cents
Swapping out those tired engine mounts is a no-brainer for keeping your Hiace or Granvia running sweet and extending its lifespan. If you are having a hard time choosing, Bob @ CARFIX is always keen to yarn about what part you need for your van. Pop over to Bob's Shop for a chinwag!
Fitment Notes

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
