loud vibrations in drive and reverse
All,
As of late I've been experiencing an issue where when I back up or when I'm sitting idle at a stop light I have this loud vibration in my car. It almost sounds like when you have a back window down and the front ones rolled up and you start to drive fast. The car is an '03 CLK55 AMG. When I took it to the mechanic he informed me it was the rubber engine mounts that are wearing away now the engine is starting to rest on the frame. He informed me the cost is going to be about $650. I trust this mechanic as I've been with him for awhile now and he's always taken care of me. I just wanted to run it by the forum and get a second opinion if this sounds correct and if the price is reasonable for that job? Look forward to your responses before I drop it off tomorrow.
Also, does anyone know of a link for a do it yourself for this model? I've searched the forums but haven't found much.
