I paid $315 for this repair about a year ago. That's parts and labor.

Which model and engine do you have? then we can advise. IF, BIG IF, you have the V12, then ask the garage which of these parts they need, then we can advise even better.

Wowee, as seen before, works, no doubt, but the long way home.

As the transmission is the ever popular TH400, adapting The GM mount, a simple rubber block seems the short way home. Measured in "coin of the realm".
