How To Confirm Engine Mount Failure - EASY DIY Checks

In this video I showcase the best ways to confirm if your engine mount needs to be replaced, this is the same process to diagnose any failed mount no matter the design make or model.
I work on a Ford Focus 2.0 litre in this video but the method applies to pretty much all Makes and Models.

I have the exact same problem with my Mazda 3 BK (identical engine mount) and I'm getting it replaced in 2 days. What I don't understand is, why 64 people disliked this video... Why? It's perfectly valid and solid information.
Thanks for sharing!

Good job Gerard. Some good diagnostic tips and of course, the obligatory good examination of the old one when it off! 😁

Great video I have the same engine and its very noise and rough when accelerating so will check the mount this weekend, any reason you didn't check the other two mounts? should we replace all three at the same time?

Good video! I suspected a side mount being semi-compromised on my 2010 Honda Fit/Jazz. While I haven't yet checked it but I do hear some roar when vehicle is cold and RPM is still high(1500) at idle and feel vibration throughout the chassis when in D at the traffic light.
