Installation help
My '04 Mini has a passenger side leak from the hydraulic motor mount. I have found the part and am wanting to install it myself. Reading comments of others having this same issue, does anyone have the step-by-step installation guidelines for this?
Understand that if the only thing you're working on is the passenger side motor mount, you do NOT have to lift the motor; you do, however, have to support it from the bottom before you remove the mount and its bracket. I was able to do this without removing the wheel liner. Just support the car on the right front jacking point, remove the front right wheel, put a bottle jack under the oil pan - I spread the load over a short piece of 2x4 -towards the passenger side, and with a long extension on the external Torx you can remove that long bolt. Then remove the bolts that hold the mount bracket to the engine block, and you can figure out the rest. Really pretty easy.
