Bad Motor Mounts? Help Please
#1
can bad motor mounts ruin a good new clutch and can then make a new clutch vibrate on enganement. i gotta a new clutch but i still have slippage and vibration when releasing the clutch in first gear... could it be motor oor tranny mounts or what else?>?>
#2
did you resurface the flywheel? I need to replace my front motor mount, and my new clutch also is slipping at 900 miles, so
idk if that can cause stress on the tranny I doubt it, but you should fix it either way.

I've been getting weird vibrations lately also.. and when I did my clutch install i noticed my motor mounts were starting to dry rot. Also when I down shift my car vibrates (only when i down shift). Wondering if this is because of the motor mounts?

Can you use the ENTER key and some different punctuation when you type?

Be more specific on your problem. A vibration coming directly from your clutch pedal would definitely point to a problem that was not addressed when you changed your clutch. If it feels like the whole car is shaking, then there is a good possibility that one or more of the motor mounts needs replaced. I have diagnosed/replaced motor mounts on two vehicles, mine and a friends, and every time I ran across this problem, the vibrations seemed to shake the entire front end of the car.

Yes I've been noticing that. lol to replace those can I just jack up the engine then take off the cross member or do I have to take out the cv joints and all that stuff? Or Dont I have to do any of that because of the tranny mount holding the engine up?
