M272 - Changing Motor Mount

Hey guys,

It's about time for me to change my motor mounts. I do not have a motor lift. I was planning on jacking up the motor from oil pan (please see below). Does anyone see an issue with this method? Also anyone know if the motor mounts have been improved? On my previous w203 these mounts would go out almost every 30-40k miles.....i do drive spiritedly but still. Seemed too often.

Should be ok. An indy used jack at the pan when I had mine done, on M271 though.
