TOMJ- I pulled the rear shocks a few weeks ago planning to put them on my other 240D but never did. FYI, they are not bilstiens but they are relatively new. If you read the original post, you will see that I don't know much about the car (like how many miles the shocks have). I will also inspect the motor mounts and trans mount (it is a manual transmission) and let you know what kind of shape they are in.
