Description

This direct-replacement Front Engine Mounting (also designated as the lower front engine torque damper mount) is engineered specifically for Opel Astra G (Astra 2) hatchbacks, sedans, classic models, and Opel Zafira A MPVs powered by 1.6L 8V/16V (X16SZR, X16XEL, Z16XE) and 1.8L 16V (X18XE1, Z18XE) petrol engines sold in South Africa. Manufactured with a heavy-duty steel mounting frame bonded to high-durability, vibration-damping natural rubber, it attaches to the front engine subframe crossmember to absorb front-to-rear engine movement and rotational torque during acceleration and gear shifting. Over time, original factory front mounts suffer from internal rubber cracking, tearing, and sag due to continuous powertrain movement and engine oil exposure, leading to harsh engine roll, thumping/clunking noises during pull-away, gear lever jerk under acceleration, and excess vibration in the cabin. Built to exact original equipment tolerances, it restores firm engine stabilization and smooth driving dynamics.
