I might make a temp bypass of the switch by just connected the 2 hoses together and see if I get vac at the other end of hose 16 (the engine mount end). Any reason why this wouldn't work?

I went through all this couple of months ago
HERE trying to find the cause of faint vibrations and eventually found that my E70's mount system was working properly even thou i feel fine vibrations at my steering wheel at idle.
So this is what i found after doing some research.
and here is the confusing part:
On
E65,E6X,E70 mounts are switched to
hard when vacuum is applied.
On
E46,E53,E83,E9X mounts are switched to
soft when vacuum is applied.
It means mounts are in soft mode when there is no vacuum at idle.
So do one test.Unplug your vacuum hose from the mount and rev the engine past 1000~1500 rpm and check if vacuum is applied to the mounts.If it is ,means your pressure converter solenoid valve is working correctly and your system is working properly.
Hope it will help you...
