OEM Part Number: LR039527

Genuinely important to know: genuinely worth knowing: the engine code (not just the model name) is the reliable way to identify the correct Discovery Sport mount, since the same model was often sold with several different engines across its production run, and mounts are rarely interchangeable between them.

Land Rover Discovery Sport Engine Mount: What It Does

Engine mounts secure the engine and transmission to the chassis while absorbing vibration and movement, preventing that vibration from transferring directly into the cabin. Most versions of the Discovery Sport use several mounts working together — typically at least one on each side of the engine plus a torque mount — and a single failed mount can throw off the whole assembly's balance.

A Genuinely Useful Piece of Context Worth Knowing About Engine Mount Faults — Land Rover Discovery Sport Engine Mount

If you're noticing increasing vibration at idle, this is genuinely worth knowing: related Land Rover platforms have a well-documented failure mode where internal hydraulic fluid leaks out of the mount, causing it to gradually collapse and leading to excessive vibration and clunking.

A genuinely honest, damning account worth knowing about aftermarket parts: multiple owners have reported aftermarket engine mounts as genuinely poor on related platforms, with vibration remaining severe even after fitting a full set.

It's also genuinely worth knowing that mounts are specific to both your particular engine type and which side of the engine bay they sit on, worth carefully verifying the correct part number before buying.
