How to replace Motor Mount at BMW E36, Tools needed: 1- 3/8” ratchet 2- 6” extensions 3- 10” extension 4- Swivel adapter 5– Six point 16mm socket You really need the extensions and swivel to do the job. Here are the new motor mounts and flange nuts. This is the setup you will use to remove and re-install the flange nuts….the only change will be the number of extensions. Step two: Take off the 16mm flange nuts that hold the motor mount in place. You will remove the nuts for the bottom mounts from underneath the car, and the top from the engine bay. Let’s start with the top. Now remove the nut from the drivers side. The drivers side is a little harder to find. Remove everything back to the throttle body: air box (or CAI), MAF, and 90 deg boot. The DS top mount is right under the TB. OK, the tops nuts are off, now crawl under the car. You will see the bottom mount. Here is the driver’s side. Use a single 6″ extension and swivel and go through the hole in the control arm to get to it. Do the passenger side also. With the top and bottom flange nuts off, the mechanical connections are done. You just need to lift the motor high enough to free the motor mount….about 1-1/2 to 2″. Use a piece of 2×4 to spread the load, and jack up the motor by the oil pan. Do this very slowly and make sure no hoses or other connections get strained.
