Audi A6 C6 EA113 Engine Mount Replacement DIY

Learn how to replace worn engine mounts on the Audi A6 C6 with the EA113 engine in this step-by-step DIY guide. Faulty engine mounts can cause strong vibrations throughout the car, especially noticeable when idling. Replacing them restores smooth engine operation and driving comfort.

🛠 Common Symptoms of Engine Mount Failure:

• Excessive engine vibration, especially at idle
• Clunking or knocking sounds when accelerating or braking
• Engine movement when shifting gears
• Increased cabin noise or harshness

🔧 Installation Tips:

The passenger-side upper mount bolt is the most difficult to access. Removing the air filter housing helps—this is a good opportunity to clean your MAF sensor as well. Use a 16mm flexible ring spanner for tight spaces.

💡Important:

Don’t fully remove the long subframe bolt unless necessary—overdoing it can cause misalignment requiring a jack and readjustment.

💡 Pro Tip:

While replacing the mounts, inspect other engine mounting components to catch wear early and avoid future repairs.
