Report: Failing Engine Mounts Will Cause Thumping in Floor
Nissan Murano Problem

Average Mileage: 86,935 mi (45,000 mi - 136,000 mi)
A thumping heard and felt in the floor is often caused by failing engine mounts. A failing mount allows too much movement of the engine, and will require replacement.

Multiple engine maounts are failing. They are expensive to replacebecause they have sensors on them. Can 03 and 04 maounts work even if they dont have the sensor?

I had a "knocking noise' when accelerating. My mechanic is working on it now and says 2 mounts are damaged. They quoted over $700.

I had to replace two of these two years ago. I didn't do the other two because nissan wanted way to much money to fix all four.

Took my Murano in to the Dealer to have the belts replaced. About 1 month later the vehicle started to knock at idle. Took it in to a mechanic and found out that 2 engine mounts were broke. quoted $900 parts n labor...... sounds like a common problem. The Dealer also broke my driver seat off of its mount while it was in and they refused to replace it. Quoted me $1,200 to fix it, ended up having it welded which I still do not feel comfortable with. At 60,000 I had the High Pressure Power Steering line break on me. Seems to be 3 common problems with the Muranos!

RookieI have a 2007 murano that I have had a problem since it was under 36K. It has a drone in the motor when under a load at approx. 1500rpm and 40mph. You can feel a slight vibration in the drives compartment and in the pedals. I have been to 3 dealerships and it is currently at the forth for repairs. I have been told to replace the tires, exhaust and trans. fluid. nothing has fixed the problem and I have been told the the motor mounts are more than likely the problem but it is a $1500.00 guess. I do not feel that a vehicle of this price (fully loaded) should be having a problem like this with such low mileage.
