Subaru Crosstrek Engine Mount: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

On the Crosstrek, a rubber washer on the transmission mount's crossmember should genuinely be touching the metal — if it isn't, the mount has worn out.

OEM Part Number: 41022FA001

Genuinely important to know: the engine code (not just the model name) is the reliable way to identify the correct Crosstrek mount, since the same model was often sold with several different engines across its production run, and mounts are rarely interchangeable between them.

Subaru Crosstrek 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 Crosstrek 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 Specific, Real Visual Check Worth Knowing — Subaru Crosstrek Engine Mount

If you suspect the transmission mount, this is genuinely worth checking yourself: looking at the crossmember where the mount attaches reveals three nuts in the middle, with the centre one having a rubber washer beneath it. If that washer isn't actually touching the crossmember anymore, this is a genuine, visual sign the mount has worn out and compressed.

A genuinely useful diagnostic technique worth trying: shifting into neutral while a clunk or vibration is present and seeing whether it disappears can help distinguish a genuine mount issue from a fault in the rotating parts of the drivetrain itself. If the noise disappears in neutral, this points toward the mounts; if it persists, the cause more likely lies in the transmission, differentials, or axles.

It's also genuinely worth knowing that reaching the engine mount securing nuts commonly requires removing the anti-roll bar first, worth considering replacing the anti-roll bar links at the same time if they're due, since you'll already have the access needed.
