Scan-Tech Motor Mounts? S90-V90 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be sevenvolvos on  Mon Feb 2 11:02 CST 2009 [RELATED]

Anyone have long term experience with motor mounts from Scan Tech?
I ordered from FCP at $75 each because IPD wanted $125 or so.
Local dealer wants $175! I have an inquiry into Borton but no reply yet.
Scan Tech has a lot of negative comments on quality.
I failed to ask FCP who their supplier was.
IPD said theirs came from Germany, but I forgot the make. They also said they sold none last year(!)but sold one pair this year.

Mounts are the latest proposed solution to my "rough running when cold" prior thread following a complete analysis of all sensors. No sensor issues were found.

The new motor mounts are expected to solve the rough problems, but I am not confident that the Scan Tech units will restore the inherent smoothness of the engine. Or to last for another 100K miles.

With the relative small number of B6304 engines out there, how many companies would be making new replacement parts to the same spec that Volvo used? I fear that the Scan Tech parts may be generic and not tuned to the B6304 engine characteristics. Or maybe there is only one manufacturer and several companies just repackage them.

Thanks for your opinions or experiences.
