Prevent Sensor Failure. Restore Engine Mount Performance.
⸻
Overview
The factory Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount (PADM) system is known to fail — not because of the mount or coil, but due to an internal sensor defect. If you’re experiencing fault codes such as 001013 or 001023 (sensor signal short to ground), the cause is almost always the sensor inside the PADM.
Our Upgraded PADM Sensor solves this issue at the source, using a fully re-engineered design that eliminates the factory flaw while maintaining 100% compatibility with your vehicle.

Built to a Higher Standard – Not All Replacements Are Equal
While there are cheaper replacement sensors on the market, most of them simply copy the flawed design of the original — using glued chips, plastic housings, and unprotected circuits. These budget options may work temporarily, but they’re prone to the same failures, often requiring you to re-open the engine bay and replace the part again within months.
Our sensor is different.
We don’t just replace the sensor — we solve the problem:
•Mechanically reinforced chip
•Fully soldered and wrapped for vibration resistance
•Precision-calibrated based on actual Porsche test data
•CNC-machined aluminum housing — not plastic
Choosing a quality-built sensor the first time saves you from repeat labor costs, error codes, and performance issues.

Common Symptoms of a Failing PADM Sensor
•Check Engine Light (CEL)
•Fault Codes: 001013 / 001023
•Inconsistent handling in Sport/Sport Plus mode
•Repeated engine mount replacements with no resolution

Why the Factory Sensor Fails
Inside the OEM mount, the sensor’s measuring chip is only glued in place — over time, vibration and pressure from the magnetic fluid can knock it loose. Once detached, the sensor sends incorrect signals, causing error codes and poor performance.

Our Solution – Reinforced & Calibrated
Our upgraded sensor is redesigned from the ground up:
•Pin-mounted chip — No more glue. Mechanically secured.
•Durable aluminum housing — Built to withstand engine bay conditions.
•OEM-compatible calibration — Fully tested on Porsche models.
•Plug-and-play — No coding or software required.
Unlike the original sensor, our version is built to last under performance driving.

Installation Compatibility
•Porsche 991 / 981 /982 /718
Both versions use the OEM plug for coil wires, with a dedicated new plug for the sensor wires to improve reliability and reduce part complexity.
