Left & Right Engine Motor Mount Set for 2023 BMW 230i & 430i 2.0L Turbo

Left and Right Engine Motor Mounts for the 230i and 430i

This is a left and right engine motor mount set built for the 2023 BMW 230i Base and the 2023 BMW 430i Base, both with the 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, cross-referenced to OE numbers 22117581617 and 22117581618. If you're feeling more vibration through the cabin at idle, hearing a clunk when the transmission shifts, or noticing the engine visibly shift under acceleration, worn motor mounts are a common cause on these BMW coupes.

Why the 230i and 430i Share a Motor Mount Set

The 230i and 430i both use BMW's turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine in a rear-wheel-drive coupe layout, and BMW has long shared powertrain and mounting hardware across its 2 Series and 4 Series coupes given how closely related their platforms are. Because the mount's job is to isolate this specific engine and drivetrain combination from the chassis regardless of which badge is on the trunk, the same left and right mount set covers both coupes when they share the identical 2.0L engine and mounting points.

Fits the 2023 BMW 230i Base and the 2023 BMW 430i Base, both with the 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Because BMW's 2 Series and 4 Series lineups include other trims and engine options that use different mounting points, it's worth confirming your specific model and engine against the OE numbers above before ordering, or contacting us with your VIN if you're unsure.

Signs Your Motor Mounts Need Replacing

Failing motor mounts on the 230i or 430i typically show up as noticeably more vibration felt through the seat and steering wheel at idle, a clunk or thud from the engine bay when shifting into gear or accelerating hard, or in more advanced cases, the engine visibly rocking or shifting when the throttle is blipped with the hood open. Because the engine mounts keep the engine's weight properly positioned and isolated from the chassis, a failed mount can also accelerate wear on nearby components like exhaust hangers that weren't designed to absorb that extra movement.

Why Replace the Mounts as a Pair

The left and right motor mounts work together to support and stabilize the same engine, absorbing similar loads and generally aging at a similar rate since they see comparable mileage and driving conditions. Replacing only one side while leaving a second, older mount in place risks uneven support, where the new mount does its job properly while the worn one continues transmitting vibration and allowing excess engine movement, which is why replacing both as a matched pair is the standard approach rather than addressing them one at a time as each fails.

Installation Notes

Replacing these mounts means supporting the engine's weight with a jack and a proper support fixture before removing the mounting bolts, working one side at a time so the engine stays correctly positioned throughout the job, and torquing the new mounts to the manufacturer's specification once installed. Because these BMW coupes have a fairly tight engine bay, having the right support equipment on hand before starting keeps the engine from shifting unexpectedly while the old mounts are out.
