FSWERKS Polyurethane OE Mount Insert - Ford Focus 2012-2014

Smiles for miles

Old RMM was on the way out, decided to pick this up while getting a new rmm. The reviews are high for a reason. A very solid feel when you use this insert. Great job on another great product fswerks.

Fits more than 12-14

Definitely just installed on my 2016 focus s..... super excited and definitely feels more stiff than before. Can’t wait to take her for a long drive.

Great product

Would definitely recommend this product over the cheap eBay or Amazon hard plastic bushings. No negative reasons not to buy this part for any focus.

everything about this order was excellent!

2013 Ford Escape

Recently replaced all engine mounts on our 2013 Ford escape due to a significant thud felling every time the transmission shifted in gear while driving or was shifted from park to reverse to drive etc. The new engine mounts made a difference in how the car drove and felt but there was still a slight feeling whenever the transmission shifted. The oem torque mount design on these cars uses very little rubber and has large open gaps allowing the mount to twist very easily, even when brand new. After installing this bushing into the new mount it has almost completely gotten rid of the thud feeling. No thud when shifting from park to drive to reverse. Slight feeling when the car is shifting while driving but that is expected. Overall this upgrade is a no brainer for almost anyone. It’s super easy to install and that’s something considering fords are not the easiest to work on lol it does increase nvh in the cabin slightly but the benefits greatly outweigh the cost of increased vibration. Get this part, you won’t be disappointed and the price is excellent.

Perfect

Good design fits great and keeps wheel hop to a minimum, thank you

Double-check your model year!

I pulled a stupid and ordered one of these for my 2018 ST3. Got the factory mount off and realized it wouldn’t fit in any way. Double checked my order and finally noticed the “2012-2014” denotation. User error! The product is great though, seems to be made well and came with a free FSWERKS sticker. I’m just going to give it to my friend with a 2012 Titanium since it would cost more than I paid for the thing to ship it back.

Might as well burn a pile of money in the street is not installing the Ford / OE mount insert when replacing passenger side motor mount

Anecdotal --- results may vary for others --- up front: If doing work on motor mount assemblies look at the entire system -- don't rush the job --- many DIY testimonial boast of completing replacement in under 45 minutes ---- That's not a lot of time --- sure, they "got it done" , but it does raise the question as to the integrity of the work done, Ergo: Yeah, but was it done right? FSWERKS insert changes drivability of vehicle -- for the better --- Note: when possible/finance allows, replace the transmission bracket / bushing assembly if the vehicle is over 6 years /90,000 miles --- any mechanical assembly is only as good as the weakest point --- typical application for MK3 / FocusS, SE, and a few ST trims --typical Part #: CV6Z6E042A Household Experience here: Ford /Mazda Duratec engines when "planted" with a reliable passenger side motor mount and the FSWERKS OE Mount Insert will most likely provide several years of service for the household / daily driving applications --- fending off frequent, time consuming, replacement of passenger side motor mount ---- Passenger side mounts suggested: Ford / Motorcraft OEM Passenger Side motor mounts---good choice for both automatic and manual X75 transmission----available on line or from local dealership --- Dealership parts departments are usually helpful ----they know things you don't. Damond Motor Sport (DMS) Mounts - Focus MK3 Non RS /ST models --- the passenger side motor mount with the FSWERKS insert works well --- initial vibration after installation decreases over time --- the DMS mount is a bit pricey just under $250 --- but weigh that against the cost Tight Budget for Car repairs? Read on: : Using FSWERKS OE Insert may improve the performance and service life of passenger side motor mounts offered by national auto parts retailers such as Advance, Oreilly's, Autozone and NAPA WHY? The added stability provided by the insert --- again, experience may vary given driving conditions/enviroments and quality of installation work.

Easiest way to change your focus

I’m not a legit car guy by any means. I’m a mtn bike mechanic with hopes of Working on cars and such. Anyways not the point. My hatch 2014 focus se tivct was fun before this insert, but after this thing.. dude, it’s a 4 banger with an intention. I wasn’t used to getting under a car that much but A man with free time and a 15 mm socket can do just abt anything. Removing and reinstalling everything was simple on jack stands, and the mount was relatively simple to find after removing the bottom engine shield? (Not up to date on terms) anyways.. I just put this bad boy in and re torqued everything and the first couple of miles were a blast. It feels more planted already, responsiveness between 1’st and 2’nd and 2’nd 3’rd are quicker than they felt before, and it flat out just lays down the power better. If you’re looking for a 10$ way to smile, this is on the top 5 list.

The reviews dont lie

Works just as described in the previous reviews. Easy install. Very minor vibration at idle. Less shudder/wheel hop at takeoff (manual trans). Ridiculously cheap $$$! Very happy with the purchase!

Just installed on a 2016

I ordered this for my 2016 manual se focus. They called me saying it will not fit, and asked if I was sure I wanted to order it. For the price no sweat. I purchased all new mounts for the car and installed this into a new mount without any issues. They may want to double check the years because I bought ford mounts and it's fits like a glove!

Honestly shocked by the improvement

Plenty of reviews have already mentioned various improved driving characteristics after installing this $11.00 insert into the existing mount bushing, and they're all true, but as a DIYer I have to say it was an absolute dream to install - 20 minutes start to finish. To have that experience followed by the immediate benefits of less vibration, wheel hop, and torque steer (gone, like seriously...just gone), makes this insert a MUST-HAVE for anyone looking for a simple mod that truly makes a difference. Can't speak to the product's lifespan yet, but even if it lasts a couple of years it costs $11.00 and I'll just put in a new one.

17 focus

Ease of installation great

Good product

Works very well. Noticable difference.

Rmm insert

Fswerks rmn insert is a great buy, was easy to install and cost effective if you don't want to buy a expensive rmm. My engine doesn't rock back at full throttle anymore, I don't feel any vibration after installation. Definitely recommend this product.

Easy install

Item was cheap and easy to install

Everyone is so enthusiastic...

Alright, right off the bat: Yes, this is good. No, it will not vibrate too much. Yes, you will feel a difference. Yes, I'd chose this over the solid electric mount (even with cost aside). Ok, so most of these reviews are so overtly jubilant, they border on being disingenuous. I'm not like that, and, if you are actually reading this, you probably aren't either. So here's what you want to know: This is a good product. Ships fast. Low effort install. Softer than you would think, but it's primary function is to fill the space, not to directly contribute to the mount's rigidity. Driving feels better. I would describe it as more clean and crisp. I have the manual, so the clutch feel is more precise. It is important to note that this does mean it's a bit less forgiving, but I very much doubt anyone will actually have an issue with that. Now, for comparisons. Personally, I feel there is a nearly negligible difference between this and the electric mount, so obviously I would recommend saving the $50 or so. And no, the cheap electric mounts on ebay are not real Ford parts. There is minimal QC with them, so they will vary between almost as good as the real one's to pretty terrible. Look, this is a noticeable upgrade, but don't expect anything world changing. It's still very much a daily driver, but that's the point. If you want something more aggressive, you will be looking at the more expensive mounts. Now, I have not had direct experience with any heavy duty mount in this car, so everything that follows is based on experience with other platforms/race cars. Those mounts will have a noticeable vibration, though nothing bad enough to bother those that like the stiffness. Driving will feel even more aggressive and direct, which feels so nice. Not everyone enjoys that raw experience, though. In my experience, you don't want this on super long drives or with your less practiced SO. If you want a daily car, this is a good step. If you want something a little more, then go with the heavy mount.

Great product.

By far the best $10 I have spent on my car. Took about 45 min to install, and very simple if you can turn a wrench. Wheel hop is gone and shifts feel so much better. Slight vibration at idle but I’m sure I won’t notice in a day or two. Well worth the time and money.

Focus Torque Strut Insert

Very easy to install and will virtually eliminate the possibility of failure of the factory Ford torque strut by limiting motion, thus reducing likelihood of rubber tearing.

MOUNT WORKS VERY WELL

I've sold auto parts for 20 years. With out a doubt this product works great on my 2014 Focus SE. Stiffens up much of the engine movement without the harsh vibration you get with full poly mounts. Great product !
