Fiat 500C Engine Mount Replacement Parts

Yes, engine mounts are a genuine fitment on the Fiat 500C — the 500C is simply the convertible (soft-top) bodystyle of the same platform as the standard 500 hatchback, sharing the same engines and drivetrain layout, so engine mounts are present on all variants. Because the mechanicals are carried over from the hatchback, mounts from the equivalent standard 500 are generally the same part, but always confirm against your registration with the breaker before buying.

The Fiat 500C ran as a single generation from 2009 through to around 2015 when a facelift was introduced, continuing into the early 2020s — so a 2012 car is pre-facelift and a 2017 car is post-facelift, which means you are crossing a production boundary. Fitment of engine mounts depends primarily on engine code rather than model year, so if both cars share the same engine code the mount may well interchange, but whether any ancillary or mounting changes were made during or around the facelift is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration.

Engine code is the single most important detail for engine mount fitment — the Fiat 500C was available with several different engines including the 0.9 TwinAir (engine code 312A2), 1.2 (169A4 or 169A6), and 1.4 (169A3), and mounts can differ between these units because of differences in engine size, weight, and orientation. Matching by year alone risks getting the wrong mount entirely, so find your engine code on your V5 logbook or via a VIN check and supply it to the breaker when requesting a quote.

Trim level does not affect engine mount fitment on the Fiat 500C — trims such as Pop, Pop Star, Lounge, and S are cosmetic and equipment-based distinctions and do not change the engine or its mounting arrangement. What matters is the engine code, so a Lounge and a Pop with the same engine code will use the same mount; just be aware that when sourcing from a breaker, other cosmetic parts on the donor car may differ from yours, but for the mount itself trim is irrelevant.

The 0.9 TwinAir is a two-cylinder turbocharged engine and its mounts are specific to that unit — you cannot simply fit a mount from a 1.2 or 1.4 petrol 500C and expect it to suit a TwinAir without confirming compatibility first. Always quote your engine code (312A2 for the TwinAir) to the breaker so they can pull the correct mount from a like-for-like donor vehicle.

Yes, the Fiat 500C typically has more than one engine mount — commonly a nearside (NS) mount on the transmission side and an offside (OS) mount, as well as potentially a lower or rear torque mount depending on the variant. Make sure you tell the breaker which specific mount has failed (your mechanic can identify this), along with your engine code, so they can supply the correct position and type rather than just any mount from a donor 500C.
