Anyone run the BMW Group N motor mounts and have them wear out? Since they’re not fluid filled, how do they show visual failure other than rubber cracking?

The reason I ask is that while the dealership had my car for airbag they did a “free inspection”. I noticed they listed the motor mount as slightly collapsed and causing some vibration at idle.
I seriously just think they didn’t know I installed Motorsport Group N mounts as they aren’t as tall and the firmness adds some vibration at idle over stock. I looked them over and it looks same to me. Being solid and firmer mounts, other than heat damage they should last much longer than stock.6MT SLICKTOP - OE CSL Wheels - OE CSL Brakes - CSL Rack - CSL Trunk - CSL Diffuser - AA Tune - AA Pulleys- AS 40% SSK - 4.10 Motorsport Diff - Bilstein PSS9s - H&R Swaybars - CSL Lip - Gruppe M CF Intake - Supersprint - M Track Mode -
As an aside, are you happy with the mounts?
They're pricey that's for sure.2003.5 MT JB/B - CSL SCHRICK SUPERSPRINT EISENMANN JRZ SWIFT MILLWAY APR ENDLESS BBS/SSR DREXLER KMP SACHS RECARO AR SLON MKRS GSP DMG KARBONIUS CP AUTOSOLUTIONS KOYOComment

Oh I really like them. Corteco makes them so you know fit and quality is great. When initially installed I recall power felt more direct.6MT SLICKTOP - OE CSL Wheels - OE CSL Brakes - CSL Rack - CSL Trunk - CSL Diffuser - AA Tune - AA Pulleys- AS 40% SSK - 4.10 Motorsport Diff - Bilstein PSS9s - H&R Swaybars - CSL Lip - Gruppe M CF Intake - Supersprint - M Track ModeComment

Rogue Engineering and Bimmerworld both sell their own replica version of these since NLA. And for a lot less.6MT SLICKTOP - OE CSL Wheels - OE CSL Brakes - CSL Rack - CSL Trunk - CSL Diffuser - AA Tune - AA Pulleys- AS 40% SSK - 4.10 Motorsport Diff - Bilstein PSS9s - H&R Swaybars - CSL Lip - Gruppe M CF Intake - Supersprint - M Track ModeComment
