Seems my rubber engine mountings have broken and the engine is sitting half on, half off the rubbers.

Any tips on changing them?

Thanks!

Use an hoist to raise the engine, or a jack from underneath.

Seem to be having trouble sourcing them now, ECP and GSF don't have stock. Trying to get through to the stealers, but does anyone know a good supplier?

Sorry - I'm just taking a 316i to be weighed in & would have taken the mounts off for you.

Try Euro Motaparts in Whitchurch, they may have them.
