So my 2.4 went in today to get a new clutch kit installed and while stripping the car the mechanic has stubmled across a problem with one of the engine mounts. Specifically, one of the bolts that holds the mount onto the engine block is completely siezed - now I mean completey seized. It will only move about 3mm top. The other 3 bolts within the mount came out fine. Now he is concerned, he could try and force it but it would break and then it's an "engine out" job to thread a new bolt or worse he could crack the engine block itself and then the car is effectively a write-off.
So he called me and asked, what would I like him to do....
Anyone else have this, anyone have any ideas?
He's gonna call Honda HQ tomorrow (he rang me at 5:30pm) and get them to advise, but as it's a 04, they'll probably advise that you're on your own.
