Description
Powerflex Rear Subframe Rear Bushings Inserts for BMW 3 Series (E46) / BMW M3 (E46) / X3 / Z4.
Function and design
Subframe and beam mounts connect a suspension-carrying assembly to the body. Their compliance affects how that assembly moves relative to the chassis under braking, cornering and driveline loads.
What to consider
A replacement bushing and a reinforcement insert are different approaches to that mounting point. Changes in isolation can make road or drivetrain noise more noticeable; select the construction and specification appropriate to the build.
Application
BMW 3 Series (E46) / BMW M3 (E46) / X3 / Z4.
Technical details
- Construction: reinforcement insert for the compatible original mounting arrangement. It is not a complete replacement mount; the retained mount must be suitable for reuse.
Choose your series
- Street: the road-oriented series; compound selection depends on the individual application.
- Heritage: road-oriented polyurethane in a dark grey appearance intended to resemble original rubber.
- Black Series: the firmer series generally intended to prioritize movement control. Product-specific fitment and intended-use restrictions still apply.
