I've been trying to track down some strange vibrations after the ES motor mount install (dogbone and rear insulator only). I noticed that the drivers side motor mount is adjustable (similar to how the front is adjustable). I moved where mine was and it seemed to help.

Can a couple people who have never touched there drivers side motor mount (under battery) take a look at it and tell me if the bolt is at the top, middle, or bottom of the slot?
Thank You.

Maybe everyone on here has had their motor mounts out.

May want to go on b15sentra.net and ask this question since probably more people over there have never touched their motor mounts as opposed to this forum

*ducks*

Before I played "crazy Nissan technician" my driver side mount was bolted about 1/2 way up. I remember this because of the millions of times I messed with the car in that area and the bolt marks are still there. The shop manual states that the drivers side mount adjustment is for getting the proper length of the front control mount (dog bone which I think can be adjusted also) of 2.1 to 2.2 inches from bolt center to bolt center, and to help level the whole engine. Vibration problems are more then likely some thing else. My whole engine has been at differant angles due to differant mounts and the vibration really never changed. Personal advise.... install JWT mounts on passenger and drivers side (trany) and Energy S. black graphine Poly inserts on the rear control mount and front control mount/dog bone. Then your engine should sit level and have great responce.
Good luck.

my bolt was between the middle and top. Theres a chance that it could move on its own though, so i dont know where it began.

Bringing this back to the top.
Come on, anybody with a B14 who has never touched their drivers side motor mount please go take a look at it. Open the hood, look under the battery, and tell me where the bolt is in relation to the slot. You might need a flashlight. Less than 5 minutes. Please?

Thank you. Mine was bolted at the very bottom and I couldn't adjust the dogbone the way I wanted to . I'll set it between the middle and the top and then try to adjust the dogbone and see if that helps.

I moved the drivers side mount so that the bolt was at the top of the slot. There is almost no motor mount noise now. woo-hoo
