The Mount for the Porsche 997 Generation 1 and Generation 2 Coupe (Porsche product code 99737504908) serves as a critical component that secures the engine to the vehicle's chassis. It helps to absorb vibrations and impacts from the engine during operation, maintaining stability and ensuring a smooth ride. This particular engine mount is designed to meet the specific structural and performance requirements of the Porsche 997, providing durability and reliability for both everyday driving and performance enhancements. Proper functioning of the engine mount is essential for optimal engine performance and to minimize wear on other related components.

• Position on Vehicle: Front engine mount assembly (left OR right side) – front of the engine block, attaching to the chassis via mount bracket.
• Cross-Reference / Alternative Numbers: OEM: 997 375 049 08; also superseded from 997 375 049 04 and 997 375 049 06 in earlier listings.
•  Applications: Use this mount when original mount shows signs of failure — to restore engine stability, reduce vibration, maintain correct engine alignment and safeguard ancillary components.

An engine mount  plays a vital role in stabilising the powertrain and isolating engine-borne vibration from the cabin and chassis. Over time the hydraulic fluid, rubber bushings or bonding will degrade, causing increased engine movement, vibration, noise or premature wear of transmission and drivetrain components. Replacing a suspect mount restores comfort, handling precision and engine/gearbox alignment.

When and why to replace:
• Noticeable engine vibration, rumble or harshness in the cabin or at idle.
• Visual signs of mount wear: cracked rubber, leaking fluid, broken bracket.
• After engine removal, major service or performance upgrades (making access easier).
• High-mileage vehicle where original mounts are likely ageing and losing damping capability.
• Preventive replacement before mount failure protects drivetrain components and avoids costly collateral damage.
