Hi BMWJohn,
Ah, well, if you have the time to replace both motor mounts and the transmission mount, if, on inspection, they appear to need replacement, I'd say "giddy yup!"
As you sit in your venerable, yet mighty, Volvo 240, looking forward, the left side motor mount is more gracile and smaller then the right (under the oil filter) motor mount as the redblock engine in the Volvo 240 tends to want to lift up off the left side (under the thermostat) motor mount as you accelerate.
Even in engines where the right side motor was soaked in oil and well sagged, the right motor needed replacement I'd found.
I actually have Scantech motor mounts, just before they changed their name to Swedespeed or ProPartsSweden (?), I think. After like four-five years or so, they are fine and without sag. I'd even say they are veavier, denser, and beeffier than the OEM for 1992 240 sedan and behave like the deisel motor mounts (when you could get these from Volvo, they transfer more engine vibration, a bit, I like that, though, though) I also slapped in a transmission mount under the M47 II manual transmission.
What kind of BMW do you have?
