Excessive driveline vibration is cause by one of a few things, but more than likely, it is the mounts in your vehicle. They keep your engine and transmission secure for more positive shifting and driveline triangulation as well as absorbing vibration. If any of these are occuring in your MINI, it's time to examine your mounts.
Take a look at your other mounts prior to ordering. Grab your engine by the top and shake it. If it moves rather significantly, replace all the mounts to stiffen up your entire driveline for better performance.
