Twingo uneven idling engine mount fault

Hey, I've got a 2014 Renault Twingo with a gasoline engine and 131972 km on the clock. Recently, I've been experiencing uneven idling, and the error memory shows a fault related to the engine mount. I suspect it might be a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone dealt with this before? It's driving me nuts!

The symptoms you describe indeed point towards a potential engine mount issue, particularly with the electrical connection. Has the engine mount been visually inspected for damage or excessive wear? A faulty mounting bracket could certainly cause uneven idling and trigger error codes.

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't had a close look myself, to be honest. But if the cable or plug looks okay, is there anything else that could be causing this? Could it really be the whole mounting bracket?

While a visual inspection of the connections is a good first step, the error code strongly suggests an electrical fault within the engine mount itself or its immediate wiring. Given the mileage and symptoms, it's advisable to have a qualified mechanic diagnose the engine mount, potentially transmission mount and associated connections. Continuing to drive with a suspected mount failure may lead to consequential damages.

Alright, I appreciate the advice. I'll book it in with a workshop. They found the engine mount was defective and replaced it including labor for 95€. Runs like a dream now! Thanks again!
