Nissan Murano 2003-2007 Engine and Transmission Mount Kit

A first-generation Murano with tired mounts tells on itself: a clunk when you shift from park into drive or reverse, a shake through the seat at idle in gear, and the engine visibly rocking when you brake-torque it with the hood up. The VQ35 sits in hydraulic and rubber mounts that crack and collapse with age and heat, and once one goes the others take the extra load and follow it.

This kit replaces all four at once: the front engine mount, the front right (passenger side) engine mount, the rear engine mount, and the transmission mount. It fits the 2003-2007 Nissan Murano 3.5L V6 with front-wheel drive and the automatic transmission. Cross references: A7349, A7348, A7358, A4321, 9252, 9592, 9223, 9248, 9414.

Support the engine with a jack and a block of wood under the oil pan, and change one mount at a time so the engine and trans stay where they belong. Run every through-bolt in snug, then do the final torque with the vehicle back on its wheels so the rubber is not preloaded in a twisted position. Check the trans mount last, since a sagging trans mount can make shift linkage and axle angles feel off even after the engine mounts are fresh.
