Fiat 500 Engine Mount Replacement Parts

The Fiat 500 second generation ran from 2007 through to 2024, with a facelift around 2015, so a 2012 and a 2016 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. Engine mounts follow the engine code rather than the model year, so if both cars share the same engine code the mount may well interchange, but mounting detail changes can occur around a facelift without any external sign — confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying.

Yes — engine code is the single most important detail for this part. The Fiat 500 has been sold with several different petrol and diesel engines, including 1.2, 1.4, 0.9 TwinAir and 1.3 Multijet units, and the mounts are not the same across those variants. Find your engine code on your V5C or via a VIN check and give it to the breaker so they can match the donor car precisely.

Trim level — whether your car is a Pop, Lounge, Sport, or any other Fiat 500 grade — makes no difference to the engine mount required. The mount is determined by the engine code and gearbox type, not by the trim or any cosmetic specification. Just make sure the donor car's engine code matches yours and you're looking in the right area.

Gearbox type can affect which mounts are used and how the engine sits in the bay, so it is worth telling the breaker whether your car is manual or automatic. The 500's automatic option uses a different transmission arrangement and that can influence mount positioning. Quote your engine code and gearbox type together when requesting a quote from the breaker.

Front-wheel-drive cars like the Fiat 500 typically have mounts at multiple positions — commonly a nearside (NS), offside (OS) and sometimes a rear or lower torque mount — rather than simply left and right as on a rear-wheel-drive car. Which specific position you need will depend on which mount has failed, and your breaker will need your engine code and the mount position to supply the correct part. Year can matter if mount design changed at any point during the model's production, so always have your registration to hand when contacting a breaker.

The engine mount is a mechanical component tied to the engine and subframe, not to the body style, so a mount from a 500C should correspond to the same part as the equivalent hatchback 500 if the engine codes match. That said, confirm this with the breaker against both registrations, as there is always a possibility of ancillary differences that are not obvious from the outside. Never assume fitment without the breaker verifying both vehicles.
