3363691 - INTRODUCTION - POWER UNIT SUPPORTS
CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS
The power unit supports have a structural connecting function for the power unit and the bodyshell.They are designed to support the weight of the power unit and the loads from the torque transmitted by the engine.Each rubber has a rubber - metal mounting which is designed to dampen the vibrations produced by the engine, thereby reducing most of the vibrations transmitted to the bodyshell.Type
This is a centre of gravity type power unit support, comprising two mountings plus a reaction connecting rod that acts as a rod with new supports aligned on one axis for the centre of gravity thereby producing reaction forces.System details
The adoption of this system has made it possible to reduce noise by about 2 Db.This had led to advantages, especially in terms of driveability and comfort inside the passenger compartment.
