Hyundai i20 Engine Mount Replacement Parts

The first-generation i20 ran from 2008 to 2014, while the second-generation i20 launched in 2015, so a 2012 mount and a 2016 mount come from entirely different platforms and will not interchange. Even within the same generation, fitment depends heavily on the engine code, so a straight swap is not guaranteed without checking codes match. Give the breaker both registration numbers and they can confirm against the exact engine codes before you commit.

Engine code matters more than year for engine mounts, because Hyundai fitted several different engines to the i20 across both generations — including 1.0, 1.2, and 1.4 petrol units as well as 1.1 and 1.4 diesel units — and each can use different mounting configurations. Year alone is not enough, as different engines were offered in the same model year. Your engine code is printed on your V5C or can be confirmed via a VIN check, and passing it to the breaker is the most reliable way to find a correct match.

Trim level does not affect engine mount fitment — the mount follows the engine and gearbox configuration, not whether your car is a Classic, SE, or Premium. What does matter is whether your car is petrol or diesel and which specific engine code you have, as these determine which mount design was used. Bear in mind a car from a higher trim may have had optional extras that don't affect the mechanical mounting, so focus on the engine code rather than the badge.

No — petrol and diesel engines in the i20 use different mounts because the engines themselves are physically different units with different torque characteristics and block designs. A mount from a 1.2 petrol, for example, will not be correct for a 1.4 diesel even if both cars are the same year and generation. Always match the fuel type and engine code, and confirm with the breaker against your registration to be certain.

The second-generation i20 ran from 2015 to 2020, so both years sit within the same generation, which is a promising starting point. However, there were running production changes during this period and mounting configurations can vary between engine codes and gearbox types even within the same generation. Confirm with the breaker against both registration numbers and your engine code, as they can check whether the specific mount matches before dispatch.

Gearbox type can affect engine mount fitment because the gearbox mount and the overall drivetrain layout differ between manual and automatic variants, which can influence how the engine is supported. Not all engine and gearbox combinations were offered across every year of the i20, so this narrows the field further. Tell the breaker your gearbox type alongside your engine code and registration to make sure the mount they supply matches your setup.
