I need new engine mounts. I am getting the typical engine vibration and I can visually see that I have very little support in the mounts. I have changed mounts on other vehicles but mainly older 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s American trucks. Is there any pit falls that I should pay attention to before I start this project? Also, does anyone have a recommended website to order parts from? I want to get OEM so I was thinking BMWPartsDirect.com. I have never ordered from there before though so I have no prior knowledge of their quality. They are located only an hour and a half from me so if need be I could go kick them in the nuts. Thanks for the help!

    Haven’t done one myself, but check the air intake duct that fits into the turbo. It tends to be oily and very brittle, you may snap it off when the engine is hoisted a bit. Check the proceedure, it may be a part that needs to be removed beforehand. Good luck!
