Issue just started last night. Just starting out in first gear while slipping the clutch. Once clutch engages at lower RPMs it felt like I was rolling over speed bumps. At faster speeds it seemed fine. Now it is starting to happen more frequent but only at lower RPMs. I have not had a chance to diagnose yet. Anything in particular come to mind?
Thanks Rob |

Finally had a chance to work on the car this weekend. Thanks for all your help guys! It was the rubber motor mounts. Both of them were sheared in half!!

Finally had a chance to work on the car this weekend. Thanks for all your help guys! It was the rubber motor mounts. Both of them were sheared in half!! That is great that you found them! When I took my engine out the last time I found both of mine broken as well. However, the broken motor mounts should not cause the behavior that you describe all by themselves (more like a symptom than root cause) Dont be too surprised if you find that the problem is still there after you replace them. I would expect broken motor mounts to show thenselves more when starting/stopping or shifting, not driving smoothly over level ground. Maybe I misunderstood your description of the problem. |
