Hey all,
I need help diagnosing a problem.
I'm very worried about the continuing drivetrain lash that I'm experiencing.(omg)
I've replaced the front and rear motor mounts with those from AWR. I've also replaced the motormount on the passenger side with a stock, filled mount.
FYI - All three mounts were completely torn, with the one on the passenger side the worse off.
Even with these three mounts, I am getting insane drivetrain lash...
Will I need to replace/fill the fourth (transmission side) as well?
Is there something else that could be causing this?
Do our cars have lash adjusters? If so, where?
The shaking has changed as I replace the mounts. It went from very violent low repetitions to less violent with higher repetition to not nearly as violent with all stock mounts, yet very high repetition. By repetition I mean the speed at which the engine bucks back and forth. low reps = slow bucking/high reps = fast bucking.
I can only surmise that the three mounts are keeping the engine from bucking as far as before but, I need this to stop. It is very, very anoying and I'm sure it can't be good for the engine, tranny or the exhaust.
I bought the car used and it's been there ever since about a week after I bought it. I don't remember feeling it during the test drive...
Any help or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
