look at how much the engine moves, if moves more than 1" fore-aft, replace. if you can see the rubber in the mount and it is torn, replace. replace the lower mount too
The 2007 Saturn Vue is equipped with either a 2.2L four-cylinder engine or a 3.5L V6 engine. The four-cylinder engine has a timing chain, which typically does not require replacement under normal conditions, while the V6 engine has a timing belt that generally needs replacement around 100,000 miles. It's essential to follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule to ensure optimal engine performance. Always consult your owner's manual for specific recommendations.
Yes, it uses an internal timing "CHAIN", not a belt. The timing chain should last until the engine needs to be rebuilt.
Inspect it and if it looks ok, then use a pry bar to apply upward pressure to the mount. If it is broken you will see it.
While it is possible for an engine to fall out if the motor mounts are bad, it is very unlikely. However, a broken mount will likely destroy the engine if it is not replaced.
Under normal circumstances no, the chain normally needs no replacement. It is designed to last the life of the engine and is replaced during a complete engine rebuild.
You should replace a motor mount on a 2005 Mazda 6 if you notice symptoms such as excessive engine vibration, unusual engine movement, or a clunking noise when accelerating or decelerating. Additionally, if you visually inspect the mount and see signs of cracking, tearing, or fluid leakage, it's a strong indication that it needs replacement. Regular maintenance checks can help identify these issues early.
If your engine jumps when accelerating, or when certain noises are made when engine torques.
Most likely the water pump is faulty and needs replacement.
The chain, if equipped, needs no replacement and will normally last the life of the engine.
It is important to know the capacity of all the fluid types in a car. IN a Saturn Lw200 a person needs five quarts of engine oil.
This sounds like an engine or transmission mount has gone bad and needs replaced.
Could be a bad ABS sensor. Needs service/replacement.
