Chevy Malibu 2004-2010 3.5L V6 Auto Transmission Mount Kit

On the 3.5L V6 Malibu and its G6 and Aura platform mates, the hydraulic right-side engine mount is the one that usually goes first. It leaks its fluid, the rubber sags, and the engine starts banging into the frame on the 1-2 shift and when you drop it into drive or reverse. A torn transmission mount on the driver side adds a clunk on hard throttle and a buzz through the floor at idle in gear.

This three-piece kit covers the right engine mount (hydraulic), the rear left automatic transmission mount, and the left automatic transmission mount (hydraulic, second design) for the 2004-2010 Chevrolet Malibu 3.5L V6, 2005-2010 Pontiac G6 3.5L V6 coupe and sedan, and 2007-2008 Saturn Aura 3.5L V6, automatic transmission only. Cross references include A5354HY, A5355, A5386HY, EM3094, EM3097, EM3112 and GM 25791900, 25846771, 22708433, 22708448, 22708449, 22733320.

To confirm, pop the hood, hold the brake, and shift between drive and reverse at idle while a helper watches the engine. More than a half inch of rock, or oily residue under the right mount, means they are done. Support the engine and the transaxle from below with a jack and wood block and change one mount at a time so nothing shifts out of alignment.
