Call me stupid, but every car i have started with a broken engine mount, actually run smoother with less vibration due to the broken engine mount not transfering the vibrations to the body of the car. If you actually drive with the broken mount you will feel it and see it with the gearstick moving. Only way I can see the vibrations occuring with broken mounts is with the symptoms Homer described.

when travelling around 110kph (speed limit on some road), the vibration is quite large.

yesterday i travelling at 140kph, the whole car vibrate as if it wants to fall apart,
and with a lot of sounds...



Sam, perhaps if you could get the car up to about 180 -200km/h you might find the problem!

i disagree because what if the mount is broken and it is resting on the other piece of the broken engine mount when not moving there for transfering vibrations to the car and when driving it is bouncing all over the joint soo is an on and off vibration.

Its ok to disagree, but it is also worthwhile carefully reading what I wrote and not just what you quoted. Its also worthwhile asking yourself exactly how many cars you have seen and felt broken engine mounts on.

My car vibrated like hell when i got it.
Turns out the gearbox was touching the tunnel.
Might be that?

Ive broken about 3sets of engine mounts. It always felt rougher, yes even at idle. A lumpy cam didnt help either. If you think about it. Even with a broken mount the same forces are still been applied to the body. Its still attached right? Its not hovering or spinning on its own axis.

Mine felt rough with broken mounts as each time it lumped over it would slighty lift the broken mount and come back down with more force than before. Rather than the energy been spread out on the lift and drop all energy is been put into the drop of the mount.

Geeez what a ramble. Sorry guys.

Have you found the source yet? If your having firing problems it would be best to get that sorted first. It may well be the whole problem.

I broke 3 sets of engine mounts in an EA stunt falcon (my parents car that I got to use when I first got my P's, Hence stunt falcon). I used to wreck them hitting speed humps at 80k's. Every time they broke there was a vibration and also torque was severley effected.
