Talking More questions

Okay, so every once in a while when i go to take off , my car rattles alot, someone told me that my engine mounts could be worn or damaged, would this also make bumps, etc seem real bad too? Cuz i was going downa bumpy driveway and i felt like my car was gonna rattle to pieces but my friends had no problems with it in their cars...thanks gurus.

Re: More questions

if your car rattles, it could be in your suspension.. could even be ball joints or tie rods..

if your engine rattles, make sure all 4 cylinders are firing. if not, then mounts are to blame for vibrations.

Re: More questions

jack up the motor from the bellhousing where the tranny attaches to the motor and change them one at a time

Re: More questions

i had the same problem... engine mounts would surely help but check your rotors for serious warpage... also suspension bushings like the tension rods will give you serious vibrations while decelerating.... check those out first before you go ahead and pull your motor out...

could save you a few hours of work... or even better, money.
