OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — engine mount (aftermarket) Optimal F7-5112 / Febest MM-KB4RR

Accuracy note: Covers the Mitsubishi L200 (2015-) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Engine mounts are sold by position (left, right, front, rear, upper, lower), and the right one depends on the engine, the gearbox (manual, automatic or dual-clutch) and the trim. The references below are examples from the UK aftermarket catalogue for the engines checked on this generation, so match your own engine code and gearbox before ordering; the carmaker's own numbers are not quoted in those listings, so check the genuine mount against your VIN if you want a guaranteed match.

Engine Mount — Rear (aftermarket)	Febest MM-KB4RR, Maxgear 40-0516 (manual)
Engine Mount — Left rear (aftermarket)	Optimal F7-5112 (manual)
Engine Mount — Right (aftermarket)	Febest MM-KSRH
Genuine (OE) number	Not quoted in the catalogue listings — mounts differ by engine and gearbox, so order the genuine ones against your VIN
Fitment notes	The listing above shows examples for the engines checked; petrol, diesel, manual and automatic versions often use different mounts, and cars usually have more than one mount.

Accuracy note: genuinely worth knowing: hydraulic (fluid-filled) mounts and simple rubber mounts are used in different positions on the same L200 engine, and they aren't interchangeable — check which type is fitted at each mounting point before ordering a replacement.

Mitsubishi L200 Engine Mount: What It Does

Engine mounts secure the engine and transmission to the chassis while absorbing vibration and movement, preventing that vibration from transferring directly into the cabin. Most versions of the L200 use several mounts working together — typically at least one on each side of the engine plus a torque mount — and a single failed mount can throw off the whole assembly's balance.

A Genuinely Alarming, Real Pricing Discrepancy Worth Knowing About — Mitsubishi L200 Engine Mount

This is genuinely worth knowing before agreeing to an expensive quote for a mount-related clunk: one documented case on a related Mitsubishi model saw a garage quote £600 for what they described as a "differential mounting" part — but the actual replacement bush needed was available from an aftermarket brand for under £24 including delivery, or as a genuine Mitsubishi part for somewhere between £50 and £100. It's genuinely worth getting a second quote if you're facing a similarly high price for what sounds like this specific job.

A genuinely useful DIY tip worth knowing: take a photo of the original mount bush before removing it from its bracket, since the orientation of the bush matters for correct reinstallation.

It's also genuinely worth knowing a useful diagnostic distinction: a clunk specifically when moving off typically points toward a worn engine or motor mount, but a separate vibration that only appears at higher speed can have an entirely unrelated cause, such as binding brake calipers — worth not assuming every noise or vibration issue shares the same root cause.
