Hope this shows the picture of the missing rubber on mount, this being the rear right mount.

Well having seen this, red arrow;

There may be nothing wrong with bush, but definitly looks like metal-metal contact in gap. Will try to wedge some rubber in gap and test drive. Looks like option might be for rubber to be rotated so that the lip is the part that seperates the contact surfaces.

Re: Clunky rear end
Problem sorted.
Taken to BMW dealer, after some time removed a greased anti roll bar bushes. Cured problem.
Had tried to get these off myself, but one bolt is hidden behind exhaust pipe, so they must have the knack to get at 'em.
Seems like the rubber sticks to the bar.
Might seek out some urethane ones in future if problem reoccurs.
