My motor mount was replaced last year by the dealer I bought my ML from...the reason why was because there were minor cracks in it before I bought it...I didn't have to pay to fix it...but if I remember correctly, they told me it cost somewhere between $7-13k to replace....

Oh and just FYI, it may have been that costly because it had cracked to the point where my motor was pushing against the radiator...

It costs not more than $300 to replace them..

Its about $150 in parts and $150 in labor..

The motor just gets pulled out, the S belt has to be taken off....the old motor mounts unscrewed and new ones put in place...motor lowered in place..that's it. About a 1 hour job, at the most...(unless ofcourse, something else has broken inside)

I got it done for about $300 2 years back at the dealer...
