BMW put this package together that includes the strut mount and all associated hardware as part of their Value Line replacement parts. Included with this package of Genuine parts is -
a. Strut Mount, #31336752735
b. Strut shaft M14x1.5 nut, #31106774714
c. Strut Mount M8 mounting nut x 3, #31316769731

Front struts/shocks on the E46 323i/325i/328i/330i, E46 325xi/330xi, E39 525i/528i/530i, and E83 X3 are mounted to the chassis with this front upper strut mount. It's a dense rubber mount that also incorporates a bearing that allows the strut shaft to rotate as the steering changes. Over time the rubber breaks down and the bearing wears out and the entire mount should be replaced.
This is one strut mount and enough to parts to refresh everything around it, while you're changing it. If you are replacing both side, be sure to add two of these to your cart.
This is a Genuine BMW E46, E39, X3 front strut mount kit with a two year warranty. These Value Line kits tend to be more expensive than OEM replacement parts but they include more parts to make the installation smoother and make shopping easier. They are the ideal packaged kit for customers who insist on Genuine BMW parts and nothing else.
