[diesel_mercedes] Re: motor mounts.

 

thanks for the offer but i am in pennsylvania... The car is am 84 300d. The.funny.thing is the car thuds exactly at like 18 mph. Even if I
Just let the car cruise to a stop. The mechanic said that it would take hours to get the bolt out by drilling out. Does this change anything do u think?

> What year/model of Mercedes Diesel do you have? My first one, a ‘78 300D, had this problem until I changed the engine and transmission mounts. It also vibrated when started or during shutdown. I hope that they didn’t loosen the stripped bolt to the point where it’s going to fall out. It needs to be addressed. It could put stress on the other mounts as well as the rest of the drivetrain if the engine isn’t in proper alignment. Either make them fix it right or take it to another shop to fix it. I’m about to change the motor mounts on my newly purchased 1977 240D, my second time doing the job. If you were close to me, I would help.
