I have changed 3 motor mounts just the other day. They were pretty bad. Front,back and side. (the torque mount or whatever its called was replaced awhile ago-so only one that didnt get replaced was the one under the car)
Before I changed them I noticed a hard jerk after slowing down from around 25mph therefore it didnt really bother me that much since this is the only time it did it. BTW I have an AT.
NOW...
You know how when you floor the pedal but then immediately let go well it jerks hard each time I do this--the exact sound and jerk as I mentioned above ---and it never did this when i slammed on the gas and let go only before the new mounts.
So would the lower mount I didnt replace cause this ?
Is this mount called the transaxle mount or is this mount for manuals only? (reading haynes manual about this mount)
And do the new mounts need some time to break in? (since the old front and rear were shorter than the new ones from being so old and cracked)
