Need Motor Mount Torque Spec for D17A6
I need to replace the front motor mount of my 2001 Civic EX. I have a Haynes repair manual, however they deemed it appropriate for some reason to exclude the motor mount torque specs other than "tighten securely". Can anyone provide the torque specs for both the mount to engine bolts and the center bolt for the front (radiator side) engine mount? TIA.

It Wasn't Me has them right on as per Service Manual. The manual also states that you should replace the Bolt of the front mount.

there is no reason to replace the front bolt in the mount.
I would suggest you get a energy suspension motor mount inserts kit it's like $32 and just stick them in the front mount cause the front mount is known for tearing unless you have those in I would not worry about the rear mount cause they don't really fit and are a pain to install and some people complain about vibrations if they have them both in

all of the honda front motor mounts break on the d17 unless you have the energy suspension inserts. they are so popular I called honda the said they had one in and on the shelf got in the car and was there within 20mins of calling and they had already given the last one to somebody else I talked to the guy he said that was one of the most popular parts that gets replaced. their is not enough rubber between the center and the outer edges.
it's like $60 from honda 3 bolts on the block and one through the mount. if you have a floor jack and some jack stands it is a piece of cake to change. put the car on jack stands remove the old mount bolt on the new mount to the block and if you need to line it up use the jack carefully under the oil pan to slightly raise and lower the mount till it lines up also a giant screwdriver helps to line it up. and bolt it down tight

so the car doesn't fall
and so you can use the jack to raise and lower the motor from under neath to get it lined up with the mount
