Hey folks,

Long time no post.

I am bummed to discover that my 745's front strut bushing/mount is dying AGAIN. I replaced them a couple of years ago, along with the shocks, and then had to replace a shock and bushing on one side about 6k later. I figured it was just a defective part, but now I wonder if the IPD strut mount is just crappy. Anyone have any experience with those things? Anyone know if I can find OEM mounts somewhere other than the dealer? FCPG has aftermarket stuff too, but I am very leery of going down that road again. Swapping those things out is a pain.

Shouldn't those things last a million miles, like the car?
