BMW X3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW X3 MK 1, E83 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Check the efficiency of the engine supports

If during the acceleration and deceleration phase a noise is heard coming from the lower part of the engine, a sort of impact that can be perceived right under the pedal board, then it is likely that it could be a failure of the engine supports, or elements in metal and rubber able to dampen vibrations and which act as a connection between the engine and its cradle fixed to the car frame; therefore, due to the failure of the rubber, the support will no longer be able to dampen the vibrations and the metal-metal contact will result in this boring noise; however, the replacement is quite simple and inexpensive.
