Inside A Bad Strut Mount Bearing And What Causes It to Make Noise
In this video I feature a couple of strut mounts with an integrated bearing, one bad and one good. I go over how the strut mount works. I also show what the inside of the bad strut mount looks like and what causes it to make noise such as the one featured in the video linked below. I also go over what causes it.
Note: The strut mounts featured in the video has the bearing built into it. Some strut mounts do not come with an integrated bearing. It is the bearing portion of the strut mount that makes the noise discussed in the video. Strut mounts and bearings can and do fail in different manners.
Also, this video is only information. It is not a guarantee that the noise you hear on your vehicle, even if it sounds like the noise discussed, is a strut mount bearing.
Here is a link to that video discussed in the video and mentioned above.:
