Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this mount made of rubber?

Yes, it is manufactured from high-quality automotive-grade rubber designed to withstand the heat and vibration of an exhaust system.

Can I use this on both the center and rear mufflers?

Yes, the V20-0055 is engineered to be compatible with both center and rear muffler mounting positions on the listed BMW models.

Does this part include mounting hardware like bolts or nuts?

No, this part typically includes only the rubber mount component. You should retain the existing metal hardware from your vehicle.

How often should exhaust mounts be replaced?

They should be inspected every 20,000 to 30,000 miles or whenever you perform exhaust-related repairs.

Will this fit an M50 engine?

Yes, the mount is compatible with the M50 engine configuration as specified in the product data.

Troubleshooting

Exhaust still rattles after installation

Ensure the exhaust pipe is properly aligned and that no other mounts are broken; a single new mount may not stop rattling if adjacent mounts have also failed.

Mount is difficult to slide onto the hanger pin

Use a small amount of non-petroleum-based lubricant (like silicone spray or soapy water) to help the mount slide onto the pin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This mount is designed for BMW 3 Series (E21, E30), 5 Series (E12, E28, E34), and 7 Series (E23, E32) platforms. It supports various engines including M10, M20, M30, M40, M41, M42, M43, M44, and M50. Always consult your vehicle's service manual to confirm if the mounting point requires this specific V20-0055 configuration.

Installation Tips:

  1. Lift the vehicle securely using a jack and jack stands.
  2. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the old mount to ease removal from the metal hangar pins.
  3. Ensure the new mount is seated fully on the hanger pins to prevent it from sliding off.

Care Instructions:

Keep the mount free from heavy oil or degreaser spills, as long-term exposure to aggressive chemicals can degrade the rubber compound. Periodically inspect the mount during oil changes to look for signs of cracking or dry rot.
