33521117676 BMW Mounting

These basically connect your strut assembly to the vehicle’s chassis. They’re a cushion, really. The rubber isolates you from road noise and vibrations. They allow the strut to move up and down with the suspension, but without transferring all that harshness directly into the body of the car. They also help maintain proper wheel alignment. Think of it like this – your suspension is working hard to absorb bumps and keep your tires on the ground. The strut mount is where that energy gets transferred from the moving parts to the fixed part of the car, the chassis. It’s a critical connection point. It doesn’t actually do the suspension work, it just makes sure the parts that do can move correctly and without sending all the shock straight into the cabin. It supports the weight of the vehicle and keeps everything lined up. If these wear out, you’ll notice if you’re driving over bumps—more vibration in the steering wheel, maybe some clunking noises. It’s not an immediate safety issue usually, but it will make the ride pretty rough. More importantly, a bad mount can throw off your wheel alignment, causing uneven tire wear and affecting how the car handles. You'll start feeling it in the steering and the way the car tracks down the road. Replacement is a good idea before it causes other problems. You can find a good selection of these, including the rubber mounts, over at Fixparts Online, if you’re looking for a source. They're relatively straightforward to replace, but it's something a lot of folks prefer to have a pro take a look at, since it involves the suspension.
