Anyone know if the issues with the 034 mounts ever got sorted? It seems like the price for "IS" mount has gone through the roof these days. While I have no issues just buying stock replacements, getting something that will last a little longer would be nice.

Stage 2+ MHD power for reference and dont really wanna go the solid mount route. Lemme know if anyone has heard anything. Thanks.

$237.02 is the best I’ve seen for an IS mount.

Worth it or just better to go FCP and lifetime on stockers? Dont mind doing the work again down the road unless the IS mount will be like a 1 and done upgrade

Don't get 034. I removed mine about a month or two ago and both were falling apart like many others before me. My DP were hitting the subframe because of them. I'd never run their N54 mounts.

I have the 60A Turners now and they are much nicer, although a little more costly too. Slight NVH at idle with idle at 850rpm

Thats actually a total shame to hear. Long time VW/Audi guy and was always used to the quality they put behind those parts...gets thats just not the case here.

Might go the Turner route, but just might stay stock if there is really no stock+ options out there.

M3 guys seem to have good luck with these:

Wish they would make something for our platform...

Same with the Rogue mounts:

I’m pretty certain those are not the upgrade “IS” mounts though. The part number for the upgrade mount is 22-11-6-793-240.

You are correct but I've still never been able to find a non branded BMW IS mount. Those Corteco are only the normal engine mount, not the stiffer right IS mount.

Oddly on FCP euro the IS mount is now backorder.

FCP use to sell REIN is mounts, prices got jacked say 2 years ago now for them

Yeah well I was looking at future maintenance costs and was scared/suprised my IS right mount was around 600$ on FCP... then one day it went down to around 200$ not to bad but now it's on back order. Hopefully when it's back it doesn't go back to 600$.

And never been able to find another OE right IS engine mount that isn't BMW branded.

Yeah the price hike was what I was talking about, seems like you cant get the IS mount for less than 2 arms and a leg, so I will likely stick with OEM replacements and FCP's lifetime warranty, at least that way I can do them every other year and not care about it.

Thanks guys for the input.

Do the original OEM mounts fail every other year? If the new replacement OEM mounts have not failed in 2 years, I doubt FCP will warranty replace them for free.

You part doesn't need to fail to return it for lifetime replacement to FCP. I stripped the Torx on my new pensioner and figured I would just get a new one instead of dealing with it in the future and got a new part.

Ended up with stock replacements recently cause of the price hike on IS mounts.

I have turner motorsport 60A mounts they're expensive but great mounts.

On initial startup there's lots of NVH but drive 500 miles to break them in and with a raised idle via MHD they're great.

Ditto. Had the 034s fail badly. Went to the Turner 60A and they are worth every penny.

IS mount is around 305 after tax here in California.

[arkie6]

What is the concern with using the stock N54 engine mounts?

[streetpro]

I am on stock original mounts at 160k miles doing stage 1+ :-)

If you are willing to spend a little more money you can get the AKG motorsports or Revshift mounts. Both mounts are really good quality and completely rebuildable. I got the 75D AKGs on my car because my car sees a decent amount of track time and even though it is a really stiff mount, once it breaks in, it is barely noticeable above 800-900 rpm. I got the AKGs because of the aluminum housing it is in as opposed to the Revshifts.

Pretty similar design(not exactly, but similar) and price to the Turner Motorsports one. The Turner's are also fully rebuildable, but come in 60D or also 90D i believe. I have the 60's, and wouldn't want to go any stiffer for a daily driven car I don't think, they are plenty stiff.
