MEYLE HD full-rubber mount to fit BMW E39

Burgess Hill/Hamburg, May 17, 2010. Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG is now offering a MEYLE HD full-rubber mount for the BMW 5 Series E39 model. Thanks to the quality of its material and the large rubber-to-metal surface area MEYLE HD mounts offer excellent load-carrying capabilities – without compromising driving comfort, emphasises Sven Nielsen, Head of Technical Engineering at Wulf Gaertner Autoparts. Lab and field test have confirmed that both the part's damping characteristics and driving comfort are equivalent to original equipment designs.

Hydro mounts increase driving comfort by neutralising operation-induced system vibration. This is why they are increasingly used on premium makes and models. “Providing increased driver comfort is especially important to brands like BMW which carry out extensive testing using hyper-sensitive measuring equipment to identify the most efficient damping technology", explains Sven Nielsen.

“To meet these demands, hydro-filled mounts are the best choice.” The downside: damping performance is achieved at the cost of part durability. Owing to high dynamic loads and only partial rubber-to-metal connection hydro-fluid can leak. The symptoms of fluid leak are loud rattling noises emitted by the axle, impaired vehicle handling and operational reliability - in short: reduced driving comfort. "With full-rubber mounts fluid leakage and premature part failure are finally a thing of the past", says Sven Nielsen.

The MEYLE HD range by Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG offers a wide variety of reinforced components for all leading makes and models, including the BMW E39.
