Subject: Heat Shields
Please pay attention to heat shields when replacing rubber components on the
right side of the engine. I just had a customer come back for the 3rd time
within the last 12 months for motor mounts for his 318i. Upon inspecting
his car, the right motor mount (located about 8-10 inches from the exhaust
manifold) was destroyed. There was no aluminum heat shield...he had
inadvertently left it off the first time he changed the mounts. The right
mount failed miserably and then the left mount failed trying to stabilize
the mass and torque. SD
