hey guys do me a favor, its a strange one...

go up to ur car, open the hood, try to shake the engine...
does it move/shake alot?

im get tappin noise from front of the car, not something light, something heavy (possibly my engine) rubbin, hitting something else... also, it doesnt idle like it used to, the car shakes while in idle... i opened the hood n pushed the engine w/ my hands, it moves alot... my friend's G's engine doesnt budge...

im worried, what could be wrong?

 

Mine doesnt move.

Maybe a broken engine mount?
Take it to the dealer.

If it is an engine mount, this is a GREAT time to have the dealer install the Crawford Headers (since they have to remove the engine from the mounts just to get those big ol' headers installed [img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]).

What? You think that John Kerry is not consistent?

 

It could definitely be the engine mount. I've heard they go quick.

I broke 2 motor mounts in another car once...why? because I went over a speed bump to fast, actually I never saw the darn thing till it was to late, the engine would hit the hood when I revved, that's how bad it can get.
