Cinquecento/Seicento rear gearbox mount replacement

Firstly open the bonnet to give you some natural light (it all helps)

The easiest way i find to get the the mount without blocking your access is to have the front two wheels on the kerb with the car in gear, handbrake on if it works and the rear wheels chocked

Or you can jack the car up from the front wishbone Where it mounts to the chassis and use the axle stand on secure place on the chassis

This is a shot mount that i was working with



You should be a jack under you engine sump with a plank of wood just encase your other mounts arn't that good to stop it from killing them (you will have to raise and lower the jack while removing and fitting the mount)

You will want to remove the two bolts (13mm) that hold the mount to the chassis

With those two bolts removed the engine should tilt forwards a bit showing the top of the nut/bolt combination


Now put a 17mm spanner over the top nut/bolt (depends with way it is for you) and the 17mm Socket on the end and undo them

remove the old mount along with the nut, bolt and washers


This is what the old mount was like, it tried to suck itself out
