Accuracy note: Covers the Volvo S60 (2010-2018) 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.

Volvo S60 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 S60 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 Failure Point Worth Checking First — Volvo S60 Engine Mount

If you're facing excessive vibration at idle or a clunk when shifting into gear, this is genuinely worth knowing: on this platform, the right-side hydraulic engine mount is a documented, frequent failure point, worth inspecting first for leaks or visible cracks. It's genuinely worth knowing that while technically still drivable with a failed mount, continued driving isn't recommended, since excessive engine movement can risk damage to surrounding coolant hoses, wiring, and the exhaust system.

A genuinely important warning worth knowing before choosing a replacement: it's worth avoiding cheap, solid rubber aftermarket mounts, since a used genuine mount is a considerably better alternative, retaining the correct hydraulic damping properties a solid rubber substitute can't replicate.

It's also genuinely worth knowing an honest, alarming account: one documented case saw two separate specialists both conclude a persistent noise was a bad wheel bearing or failing transmission, with the wheel bearing replaced — yet the noise continued for a further six months before finally being correctly traced to a broken engine mount.
