Hello guys,

I have a question about engine mounts on my car. About 6 months ago I unfortunately damaged my rear mount at the track. Mad wheel hop causes it to break. After that car would make loud clunky sound when taking off in first and reverse gears. After posting that problem back in August I got replies that other people had similar problem.
Nissan ordered rear mount for me and it was installed, I was happy the noise went away.
But what I started noticing after the rear mount was installed was that car would not drive the same way as it did before. It would pull to different sides either when driving or when braking. It felt really loose on the road.
I went back to Nissan and had them check other mounts and other things in the front that could be causing the car to drive this way. They came back to me that all other mounts looked fine and that everything in the front of the car(struts, etc) looks fine.
I was still thinking that maybe other engine mounts could be messed up and/or that new rear mount they installed was faulty. So they agreed to replace all engine mounts including rear mount again. So that would be rear mount(the one they already replaced), front mount, upper side mount on passenger side and transmission mount on driver side.

So they took my car and for some reason they only replaced front and rear mounts. I took the car after the service and it felt like it drove better, I thought the problem was fixed.

Now after about 3 months after that last service car is back to driving like a pos.
I am trying to go back to Nissan and have them replace other two mounts(upper side one and transmission mount). I can definitely hear some strange noises when I take off in first or second gears. Also, car has more vibrations when taking off in first and reverse gears and I also noticed that if I am in second gear rolling slowly and punch the gas pedal, there is definitely some excessive movement of the engine that I can feel inside the car.

I looked through number of websites to find if bad engine mounts can cause similar things that I described above. Like car feeling floaty, loose and pulling to different sides when driving. Some of the websites said that on FWD cars, alignment of engine is very important. So I am thinking if some of my engine are messed up, it could the cause to the way my car drives.

If anyone has some input on engine mounts and if they could be causing my problems it would really help me out.

Thanks.

 

Well taking my car to Nissan, hoping they will find fix something.

 

Good Luck! I have no idea what your problem could be.
