Now I just hope it won't leak.

Recently replaced mine, and the nuts were on way too tight. I ended up pulling out 2 mounts and couldn't even get the nuts off the mounts, so I was lucky I had replacement nuts. The prior replacement was done at a dealer.

Recently installed, so idk how long it's going to last... Hand tightened the nuts from inside out (torque is supposed to be 2.5 Nm), filed down the tab more than it already was (dealer had filed some and used new springs), and used Dremel to remove notch on OEM replacement.
