I did like a couple nights ago. Came out of the rear one. Didnt break or anything just simply fell out. Didnt know if anyone else has had this problem. I havent ever touched the bolt so i duno if maybe the factory just didnt tighten it up all the way or what

 

How did you notice it happen?

 

Happened me on my 2001 Evo7 hadnt got the car long.
I was driving slowly in a car park one day and heard some knocking.
I get real paranoid when i hear noises so i rang my mechanic and he told me to bring the car over, on the way up to him the knocking got worse I also heard something fall out from the unside of the car.
So then for the rest of the journey when i was letting on and off the throttle there was a banging under the car lick the exhausts was banging off the floor.
So when I got the car to him he just straight in behing the engine and said the rear engine mount bolt had broken and fallen out.
He said he had come across it a good few times, he said he couldnt understand why mitsi doesnt use stronger bolts.
He also said I was luck the mount didnt break of the casing as he has seen that happen.

So count yourself lucky also.

 

I stalled my car and heard a horrible snap it about a month later i realized it was the transmission mount bolt

 

happend to my old Evo, front mount

 

We was on the highway and we heard somethin come out of the car or sound like a picked up a rock. But once i got off my exit and started in first gear it sounded like my car was dragging sort of like the front brakes were locked up. So i got it home quick and got it in the air looking under it tryin to find somethin broke. Well i decided to check my oil drain plug to see if it was still good and tight and once i tried to tighten it down the whole motor moved when i did this and lowered it back down and my friend showed me that the bolt was completely gone.

I duno if any of you have seen the thread about the front clunking noise or not. But i have some reason to believe this could be a syntom of it. Cause this clunking noise has been doing this since i bought the car in Aug. or Sept. but once we put a new bolt in and got it fixed the noise has disappreared. Car feels more soild that it has ever been. It seemed to have this problem right before i put it away for winter and i could never tell anyone what it was doing cause they had no idea what i was talking about. And the night before this when i would get into it i could feel something jumping around making noise which was the motor its self from this bolt getting ready to fall out.

And as for stalling the car i did it right before this happened i pulled into a parking lot and forgot i still had it in gear and it stalled out so this could have helped it come out much faster.

 

i know im not as cool as all of you evo owners but i shifted into 2nd really hard and once the tires got grip again i heard a loud snap, a short jingle, and a lot of engine movement when i'd hit the throttle...hahahaha the bolt on the front mount took a stroll out of the engine bay.
