Since I have only driven one speed 3 I need to know if this is normal or something I need to check up on. At low speed like stop and go traffic everytime I start letting the clutch out (rolling or stopped) I get this solid clunk. No audible noise just feel it. Seems like the motor mounts to me just dont know if its normal or not. Car is under 3000 miles and has been doing it from day one I'm pretty sure. Thanks for the input.

Get a Rear Motor Mount, even more then less Wheel-Hop was better clutch engagement.

Sounds bad, very bad I would stop driving immediatley and check your mount. My MS3 does not do that.

It could be a bad mount, but I think allot of us are just waiting for our engine to fall out. But I'd have it checked also.

I will check it out while i'm off for Christmas. It's only the one under the battery area that loosens up right? I thought the problems with that were fixed on the 08 models. I will get the rear mount after I recover from the holiday expenses. I might do the epoxy mod for kicks while I wait.
Thanks for the advice.

If you go the the dealership (who should have replaced it before selling the car) you'll get it fixed for free. Then just get the performance mount later when you can afford it.
