Default Leaking Motor Mount?! WTF? Why is there fluid in a motor mount?! ...

Will it hurt anything to drive it until Tuesday when the dealer can get it in and replace it under the CPO warranty?

They are fluid filled mounts for better vibration dampening.

Default You are local right? You should come by and grab some 034 mounts and have the..

dealer put those in for you. They are way more HD than stockers and wont kill you price wise.

Where are you going, Prestige?

Default The 034 mounts are so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend them.
