Powertrain/Drivetrain Mount Neutralizing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: The electrical power to the air suspension system must be shut off prior to hoisting, jacking or towing an air suspension vehicle. This can be accomplished by turning off the air suspension switch. Failure to do so can result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs, which can result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations.
  1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist.
  2. Loosen, but do not remove, the powertrain/drivetrain mount fasteners.
  3. Lower the vehicle.
  4. CAUTION: Do not twist or strain the powertrain/drivetrain mounts.
  5. Move the vehicle in forward and reverse 0.6-1.2 meters (2-4 ft).
  6. Raise the vehicle.
  7. Tighten the powertrain/drivetrain mount fasteners.
  8. Lower the vehicle.
  9. Test the system for normal operation.
