Ford Fiesta Gearbox Mount Replacement Parts

The Ford Fiesta Mk6 ran from 2002 to 2008 and the Mk7 from 2008 to 2017 (facelifted in 2013), and while some engine families carried across that boundary, the gearbox mount design can differ between generations even on the same engine code. The engine code stamped on your V5 is the most reliable starting point, but you should confirm with the breaker whether a mount from the other side of that 2008 boundary physically matches before buying. Never assume a mount swaps across a generation change without that check.

The Mk7 Fiesta ran from 2008 with a facelift in 2013, and mounting arrangements can change mid-production even within the same generation. Supply your engine code to the breaker and ask them to confirm against your specific registration, as ancillary and mounting changes made during production are exactly the kind of detail that varies and cannot be stated as fact here. Getting that confirmation before purchase will save a wasted journey.

Trim level does not affect the gearbox mount — a Zetec and a Titanium on the same engine code and gearbox type will use the same mount. What actually matters is the engine code, whether the gearbox is manual or automatic, and the year within the generation. You may find cosmetic differences between donor cars when collecting from a breaker, but the mount itself is a mechanical component and trim is irrelevant to fitment.

The Fiesta ST uses a different engine — the turbocharged 1.6 EcoBoost (engine code JTJA or similar variants) — which is distinct from the naturally aspirated engines found in standard Fiesta models, so the gearbox and its associated mounts are unlikely to be the same. Always quote your exact engine code to the breaker rather than relying on the badge alone, as the ST drivetrain is a different mechanical package. Confirm directly with the breaker against your registration before ordering.

Yes, fuel type matters because petrol and diesel variants use different engines and often different gearboxes, which means the mounts are unlikely to be interchangeable even in the same model year. The engine code on your V5 will tell the breaker exactly which unit your car has and is far more useful than simply saying petrol or diesel. Always give the breaker your engine code and registration so they can match the correct mount.

Yes, the gearbox mount is a genuine component on the Ford Fiesta — it is the rubber and metal bracket that supports the gearbox and reduces vibration transmitted into the bodyshell, and it is present on both manual and automatic variants. Because the Fiesta is front-wheel drive across all mainstream variants, the drivetrain layout always includes a transversely mounted engine and gearbox assembly that requires this mount. If the mount has failed you may also want to ask the breaker to check the condition of the nearby engine mounts, as they often wear together.
