Gearbox Mount Renault Mégane 3 RS

112200015R Elastic Mounting for Renault Mégane 3 RS

The 112200015R elastic mounting is a replacement component for the upper gearbox mounting of the Renault Mégane 3 RS. This component plays an important role in maintaining the gearbox and drivetrain correctly positioned within the vehicle.

On a high-performance vehicle such as the Renault Mégane 3 RS, the engine and gearbox assembly is subjected to repeated loads during acceleration, braking, cornering and gear changes. A deteriorated mounting can allow excessive movement of the powertrain and may result in vibrations, knocking noises, drivetrain movement or less precise mechanical behaviour.

Why replace the gearbox elastic mounting?

Aged or damaged rubber and hydraulic mounting components can progressively lose their ability to control drivetrain movement. Continuing to drive with a worn mounting may allow increased movement of the gearbox assembly and can contribute to additional stress on surrounding mounting components.

Symptoms that may justify inspection of the gearbox mounting include:

• Excessive movement of the engine or gearbox during acceleration
• Knocking or clunking noises when accelerating or changing gear
• Increased vibration transmitted into the vehicle
• Jerking during load changes
• Unusual movement of the drivetrain
• Visible deterioration or deformation of the mounting

Because Renault used several gearbox mounting configurations during the Mégane 3 RS production period, it is important to check the vehicle configuration before ordering. Specialist documentation distinguishes different mounting assemblies between the 250 hp, 265 hp and 275 hp versions. {"fallbackMarkdown":"([Megane Club Italia](https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.120&utm_source=chatgpt.com))","reference":{"matched_text":"","prefix":null,"start_idx":3681,"end_idx":3713,"safe_urls":["https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.120","https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.120&utm_source=chatgpt.com","https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.200","https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.200&utm_source=chatgpt.com"],"refs":[],"alt":"([Megane Club Italia](https://www.meganeclub.it/forum/index.php?topic=40462.120&utm_source=chatgpt.com))","prompt_text":null,"type":"grouped_webpages","items":[{"title":"Che danno....

If your vehicle has already received a modified gearbox mounting assembly, checking the existing part number or vehicle VIN before ordering is recommended. This is particularly relevant when working on a Mégane 3 RS 250, 265 or 275.

What can happen with a worn gearbox mounting?

A worn gearbox mounting should not be overlooked. Excessive movement of the drivetrain can affect the mechanical behaviour of the vehicle and place additional loads on adjacent mounting components, fasteners and drivetrain elements.

For a vehicle used on the road as well as during spirited driving, track days or performance driving, maintaining the correct condition of the engine and gearbox mounting system is particularly important.

Installation and maintenance

Replacement of the upper gearbox mounting requires access to the engine and gearbox mounting assembly. The surrounding components should be inspected at the same time, particularly the associated mounting, bolts and fixing points.

For professional installation, Optimiz Access can assist with the installation and maintenance of Renault Sport vehicles in its workshop in northern France. This can be useful when several mounting components need to be inspected or replaced together.

Check the related components

Depending on the condition of your vehicle, replacing only one mounting may not address excessive drivetrain movement if another mounting component is also worn.
