16v Bx Engine Mount

Recommended Posts

steve@cornwall

As I seem to be having problems sourcing a top engine mount for the bx16v engine I was wondering if the later mount from the xantia can be used complete, as in block mount from the engine (which I think includes alternator mount) and top mount to the inner wing. Seeing as the engine can be used complete, the only problem I can see is wether the engine mounting will be different. Does anybody have experience with this ?

Something makes me think that the only identical engine mount is the one from a XU10 Turbo, but I could well be wrong.

the xm turbo engine has the correct mount, its the same as the the mi16 1.9 16v

The top half of the Xm turbo mount will be fine on a mi16, the bottom half that bolts to the block wont fit as it has a different stud pattern to the mi16 one ive compared it to.

To all: the XM turbo mount does not fit....the engine is misaligned then....on the XM turbo you put an Mi16 topmount to fit it to a 205 etc.

 

Wrong install (modified XM turbo mount):

Correct install (Mi16 top mount):

You should really get an Mi topmount. Can even order them from Pug for not too much.
