Just paid dealer 500.00 to replace the front engine mount. they said it took 2.5 hours. Looks pretty simple to get to under a plastic panel underneath theradiator toward the front of the engine. I suspect it takes about 45 min. there is lots of room under there. you will need to jack up the engine with out wrecking any thing though. If it fails again I'll do it my self.
Gm dealer did diagnose and repair the problem quickly. Same day service. We thought the transmission was going bad. We did have that serviced for 400.00 also. Total $900.00. And GM wonders why no one is buying their cars. They charge double for service. The car is working though. Nice car if you can afford it.

How do you replace a serpentine belt on a 1998 Pontiac Bonneville SSEI?
serpentine belt 1998 Bonneville Turn the tensioner counterclockwise using breaker bar, so you have good leverage, and remove the belt from the accessories. The front engine mount has three legs that connect to the front of the engine (on the passenger side of the car). You have to unscrew the lowest of the three mounting points done from the under side of the car - or - (with your wheels turned to the far right you can remove the plastic shield in the wheel well and with a long extension & breaker bar remove the lower mount bolt). There is a round tube spacer in between the engine block on this bolt of the engine mount that you take out, and you can remove and replace the belt with the spacer removed. It took me about 1 hr to change mine on my 98 Bonneville. If you go though the wheel well as I did you will need a couple of long extensions and a 18mm deep socket. Belt routing can be tricky remember to make a diagram or take a few pics before removing the belt.
