The motor mounts are actually cheaper.. here is the parts for your reference.
50820-tk8-a61 side (~50)
50830-TK8-A01 front (~450)
50810-TK8-A01 rear (~450)

I'd found a local mobile mechanic and get these installed. Don't get after market mounts for these.

#5, 7 & 9.

 

How is this possible?

active VCM is how...

 

Thanks for the info.

Contacted a few mobile mechanics.
#1 said $400 for labor plus parts (he'd get back to me)
#2 said $670 for labor plus $1389 for parts
#3 said he'd get back to me

Since I'm doing the front and rear already, should I just do the other side ones at the same time? There are 6 total?

Should I buy the parts and then find someone to put them in, or have them buy them? Sounds like #2 is marking them up quite a bit.

 

I would do all 4 at the same time as the last one which is a transmission mount is 70 and the side engine one is 55.. yea might as well.

 

Importance of the muzzler....

 

The front/rear OEM mounts are more expensive than average because they are active mounts, they are designed to produce vibrations when VCM is on so that it cancels engine vibrations.

 

So if I have a VCM muzzler can I install static mounts?

 

what’s the short term and long term impact of not replacing bad motor mounts? I have 2008 Odyssey with a bad rear motor mounts (per the dealer) and 108k miles with VCM disabled at 90k miles.

 

The air intake hose can fail (cheap) and the CV joints/axles can take a beating too. Theres probably more.

 

Yes they should.

 

OEM motor mounts supposed to last for a very, very long time. My 2012 Ody is now 203K and the only mount I replaced is the passenger side. I am lucky there are several large junk yards from where I live.. These OEM I got cost just $25 each and I keep back up 2 pairs of main front and back, another 2 below (tranny) and 1 passenger side. these mount I keep are 5-6 years old but they are OEM.
