Mitsubishi Mirage 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 Mirage 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 Mirage 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.
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.
