Help!! Motor mount install

[Zzooozz]

I was intalling a rmm on my 08 ms3. I removed the bolt on the mount and the bolt attached to the bracket. Rather than tryin to break those 19 mm bolts on the bracket i decided to push the motot up w a floor jack and slide the rmm out at a 45 degree angle. As i raised the motor i heard a bolt snap somewhere and now the motor does not flex down to its normal position. Is this a common mistake? What is the worst that could have snapped when raising the motor from below?

Please help

Transmission mount bolt may have snapped or backed out. Its located under the battery box. It may have to be reinstalled using loctite. I hope your car has had the TSB update:

Would this still be in effect for my 2008? Also, i removed all parts to get to the transmission mm and can access it. Is there any way i can tell which bolt it is? Visual they all look normal.

The bolt in question is in the middle of the transmission mount. As pictured in this thread it should have a #10 in the middle of it. If it does not have a #10 in the middle of it your car most likely did not get the TSB and you would need to get the correct bolt. If the bolt in the middle of the transmission mount is still secure and does not turn your problem may be elsewhere.
