hey guys i have recently replaced the engine mounts on my car, i used genuine lemfoerder mounts, i was hoping this would sto the vibrating at idle... i replaced them and i still have a vibrating..

I want to replace my transmission mount as well as my strut mounts, those are cracking really badly, ii have found both of those parts in meyle, but ive heard a lot of bad things about meyle, anybody know the part numbers to the lemfoerder parts? is meyle okay? what do you guys recommend?

Ideally, go OE MB. But if you insist on going aftermarket

then use Corteco / Phoenix for the trans mount and I'm gonna make a exception to my rule here Meyle HD for the strut mount. Make sure it is the HD version though, nothing else.

I tested the HD version vs. a OE MB piece (one of each installed in the same car) and the HD part seems to hold up OK.

I will say again, my preferred pick is OE MB though.

I don't think the members on here are too fond of Meyle, together with URO and Febi. I'd just stick with Lemfoerder if I was you.

You say vibrating, are you sure it's not the way the engine itself running badly? If you put your hand on top does it run smooth?

@sbaert I would prefer OE mercedes over any aftermarket parts, I just can't seem to find the part number for the OE parts, if possible I really like lemfoerder and if they make these parts I would prefer them, but I just don't know the part numbers for them

@gripen the engine does not run very smooth actually, it probably has something to do with the osculating idle, but I've tried to get help with that on another thread, just need to find the time to change the engine temp sensor...

I too have had no trouble with the two sets of Meyle HD strut mounts I have. One set is on my 90 300CE and the other is on my 89 300e. I second sbaert on this.
