Transmission Mounts for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Transmission mounts locate the transmission to the chassis of the car. Nearly all BMW transmission mounts are made of rubber which is great for absorbing vibrations and noise but may not last very long. Oil from a failing transmission seals will also contribute to premature rubber mount wear. Worn out tranny mounts can lead to harder and imprecise shifting and maybe even a dreaded mis-shift. Rubber trans mounts are generally inexpensive so replacing them every few years will not break the bank. We also offer upgraded stiffer rubber or urethane mounts that last longer and deflect less so the transmission stays in its proper place and the shift linkage is not mis-aligned.

If allowed in the rules these solid aluminum transmission mounts offer many advantages over a urethane or Delrin mounts. It's no wonder that these mounts have found their way into the top BMW racers in the country. These are machined from solid aluminum and have zero deflection, engine torque will cause a rubber or urethane mount to flex or deflect allowing more torque to passed through the drive line (instead of being wasted winding up the mount). This puts the shift linkages in better consistent alignment. And unlike rubber or urethane the aluminum has zero wear and is not affected by leaking oil or other fluids so this is likely the last set of transmission mounts you will ever need. We very strongly recommend using the solid transmission and engine mounts together as a complete kit, mixing a rubber mount with a metal mount will cause undue stress on the mounting points and will lead to a failure. We never advise using a solid mount unless a corresponding solid mount is also used.

These are a no-compromise design for all-out racing use, full solid aluminum mounts should not be used on street-driven cars since there is no material to absorb vibration making these quite harsh for regular street use (track cars don't care about noise).

Product features and benefits:

  • Crisper throttle response, positive shifter location, direct power transfer
  • Precision machined billet 6061-T6 aluminum housing
  • Grade 10.9 stud - fear not, big turbo owners
  • Engineered in-house and made in America

This is the stock transmission mount for the E46 M3 (6 speed manual). As the rubber mounts wear there is more flex and twist as the engine delivers torque. This can also throw off the alignment of the shift linkage and lead to difficult shifting. If left alone the sloppiness in the driveline could lead to a mis-shift and an expensive engine rebuild. This is the Original BMW M3 transmission mount for the best quality.

Thanks to the higher engine output in the E46 M3, this mount can also be used on the non-M E36 and E46 models as an upgrade. A good mild / street upgrade if your transmission mounts are worn, but still want to maintain good ride comfort.

Sold individually, 2 needed per car.

This transmission mount fits the following BMWs:
1992-1999 E36 3 Series including 325i, 325is, 328i, 328is & 323is (5 speed manual)
1995-1999 E36 M3 (manual transmission)
1999-2005 E46 3 Series including 323i, 323Ci, 328i, 328Ci, 325i, 325Ci, 330i, 330Ci (manual transmission)
2001-2006 E46 M3 including coupe & convertible (manual transmission)

The transmission mounts from the E46 M3 are a direct fit to the other E46 and E36 models. Thanks to the higher engine output of the E46 M3 this makes the transmission mount a good street upgrade. These mounts are a little stiffer than the stock E36/E46 transmission mount so the tranny will resist twisting better. The twisting motions can affect the shifter linkage and make shifting more difficult and not as precise. A mis-shift in an E36 or E46 can lead to a very expensive engine rebuild!

Sold as a pair.

This transmission mount fits the following BMWs:

1992-1999 E36 3 Series including 325i, 325is, 328i, 328is & 323is (5 speed manual)
1995-1999 E36 M3 (manual transmission)
