Transmission mount

[Gazwould]

Facelift S204 C250 CDI Auto , small noise / grumble / vibration upon acceleration most noticeable after a roundabout to dual carriageway ever since I've had the car .

Now given how cheap and easy it is to replace it would be rude not to .

It's a common design and shape that's used across a number of models for some time now but it's not exactly robust so a common / a given issue .


Quite an extreme version of wear



More usual




So my question is there any uprated versions that would fit from anyone / AMG ?

I've had a great experience in the past from specialists like Hardrace and Nismo who use hardened rubber .

Black series AMG has nice tranny mounts, they should be filled with more solid rubber

I would suggest the 'harder' the mount the more vibration will be sent into the car . I replaced my engine and transmission mounts on my AMG C55 with Lemforder units , no problem . As you know Lemforder supply MB with motor and transmission mounts.

This only occurs with polyurethane or solid and wouldn't with hardened rubber .

The old one in the lower photo does not appear to have any tears or cracks in....the usual clue of failure in.....just a bit squashed....I bet the new one will look like that quite soon! The one in the top pic however....that's proper cream crackered!!!
