Hi all,

I need some help sourcing one of the engine mounts. The one I need is the upper passenger side. I believe it's oil filled or hydraulic because it's cracked and leaking.

The issue I am having is just about everywhere I'm searching has the mount for the s model, not the base. When they do have the base model, it's for the automatic transmission. I want to (need to) change this as I'm out of the warranty period. I guess I'm just not as good at searching as I thought...

What I need specifically is for a 2015 Cooper 2 door hard top base with a 6 speed manual transmission. EDIT: after looking at some install manuals, I see I need to replace the engine mount to cylinder head bolts. For the mentioned model of mini, any help with where I can source the bolts too?

I have included pictures of the mount in question that I need help finding.

Awesome! That helps a lot. Is there a specific Torx set I need? its there a difference like standard and metric, or is torx a torx?

 

Those are just E-Torx (external). Something like this would be fine.

Seriously appreciate all the help. This has been a struggle for me all morning. My searching capabilities I guess need some work!


Thanks again!

 

You can order the mount from your MINI dealer. This way your getting the correct part. The bolts will need to be torqued.

 

@Nage come over to this thread that's going on... some more info over there. Would love to hear how the install goes once you're done! I need to do mine too, same issue. Oh, same car btw- S with MT.

I hadn't really thought of replacing the bolts, but I guess it's cheaper to do it right than to have them back out down the road...

Posting here trying to find a part is more effort than just calling the dealer to order it.
