M/// shocks and top mounts

Hi all.

I think my top mounts need replacing, just recently I've heard a knocking noise and I'm pretty sure it's that. While I'm at it I thought I may as well change the shocks. I'm not interested in going down the coilover route but I'm not sure about sticking with OEM either. Also are there any better options for the top mounts??

Any help would be much appreciated :thumbsup:

How strange, we posted the same post at the same time!

What are the chances :rofl:

Well between the two of us we should get some info.
BMW quoted me
£207 per shock and £31 per top mount. Then £30ish for bolts and a plastic cover.
 
I've got a feeling one of you is talking about the rears and one the fronts though? :)
 
I have rogue ones which are nicely made and if you need to remove the rear shocks there's no need to go removing all the rear trim again.

To be honest if you don't see much need for that I would go with oem. I tried Meyle HD ones a while back and they knocked pretty quickly.
