    Motor Mount Replacement Suggestions

    Hi all I need to replace all 4 mounts and would like to ask if I could just replace 2 at a time since I don't have the $ to replace all 4 at once. What about picking up 4 used ones at a wrecking yard and adding cork sport inserts as a option? Any thoughts ? Thank you for your time.

    Check Engine blinking, motor vibrating, low speed/power

    I will check that out. thanks. It is driving well it just idles rough and the CEL just popped back on today so the PCV is next. The code I pulled again after the CEL came on tonight was another P0302 so I think it has something going on with the #2 cylinder.
