Some 1992 Eldorados, Sevilles, Allantes, Rivieras, and Toronados may experience a body mount creak noise when going over bumps. This condition may be due to one or more of the body mounts being mispositioned in the frame.

This condition can be corrected by installing a new lower insulator. Refer to the chart below for vehicle application. Make certain the lower insulator is fully inserted into the frame and properly stacked before torquing the bolt (103 N.m/76 lbs.ft.). Refer to the appropriate Service Information Manual for insulator positions and the proper service procedures.

NOTE: DO NOT LUBRICATE LOWER INSULATOR WHEN REINSTALLING INTO FRAME.
