Motor Mounts Replaced - wow

Had the 55 in for regular service. Also replaced the crankshaft postion sensor before it got me. Tech stated the motor mounts were shot, swapped those also. What a difference the new mounts make, especially at start up. Guess I was just getting used to the vibrations, which are gone now. A world of difference. As a reference on parts, CPS was $140.00 and each mount $122.00. Money well spent.

hmm Makes me wonder, my car shakes like a crack head when it idles, I wonder how much of a difference it would make to have mine replaced. I too am used to the shaking.

I replaced mine at 50K miles. One was torn and oozing fluid. The car idles smooooooooth now. If you had the radio on, you could barely know it was running.

both were torn on my car and just replaced, i think this is to blame for my car feeling uneasy at WOT , kinda like the car was sledding .

Is the transmission mount recommended to be done at the same time? Just curious because I ordered the two mounts and forgot about the tranny one. How hard of a job is it? Anyone know?

Tranny mount is real easy and motor mount will require jacking up the engine.. I think my dealer charged my warranty 900 bucks for mounts and labor..
