Our 3 series E46s in the USA look nothing like yours. Even the intake track and engine cover is completely different. I didn't know they were any different in Europe.

Why is the torque spec = 65 Nm? I searched a lot and it says 47 Nm for M10 bolts. Is auto-doc sure this spec is correct? Please inform, I just ordered my mounts from auto-doc.

which are better between LEMFORDER and MEYLE?

[kendo]

it is nowhere near as easy as he makes that look especially if you have a rhd and a turbo
actuator blocks the bolt and steering rack blocks the mount

That's so dangerous to spray copper slip on the brake disc it does not make sense, spray it on the wheel hub side not so that it goes in the brake pads/brake area with the over spray and all, you do that on all your videos  !!!
