Getrag 240 tranny mount question

[Boris3]

For e30 1990-91 318i/is owners has anyone replaced their Getrag 240 mounts with oem?

A PO replaced mine but they look like the mounts for the 84-85 318i



ECS Tuning is the only place I could find that has a picture of the 1991 Genuine BMW mount (Part#22316799330). According to Pelican (with no picture) this is the same mount for the e36 318i/is and is a special order part. Blunt has a picture of a Corteco which looks the same.



Just checking to see if I'm on the right track and wondering if the PO tried to cheap out? Car is just a DD so I'm not interested in going poly.

It's true that the factory style mount on the M42 E30 is different than the others. You can use either style though with the same results. Your first picture is the mount the majority of manual E30's came with. The 2nd pic (318iS mount) is the same as 318/325 E36 cars.
