How long should motor mounts last.

I have a 2012 C250 and I am just hitting 70K miles. This will be the 3rd set of mounts (the orginal, one set under warranty, and now these). Is this normal?

TIA,

Scott

]I have a CPO C250 with - I think - the original motor mounts. Would replacement symptoms include vibration, noise, motor movement under high throttle? Any symptom feedback big time appreciated....................


All the best

I had the car in for the airbag recall and they did their usual inspection, The inspection found that both the engine mounts and transmission mount collapsed. They found other things too but,this one I recognized as having been done before. I have not really noticed the symptoms you described. Lately I have not been doing a lot of freeway driving.

Thank you, Scott.

I really think a second opinion would be a viable option.

In other news, our coupe really gets impressive MPG (which I did not expect).

Hope yours does too.

ATB,
