Rough Idle with SRI/ Possible Broken motor mount?

[mobomelter]

Well I've noticed recently that my car vibrates alot at idle and I beileve it started after i put the SRI on but i can't remember. The other thing I noticed today when I popped the hood was that there apears to be some liquid that seems to be coming from the passenger motor mount. Is it possible my mount is broken and that is causing the rough idle? Or could it be something else?

that'll do it for sure
the idle isn't rough, it's probably perfectly fine
but the broken mount will make any vibration that much more obvious

miles on it? it should be covered under warranty - and don't let them hose you over the sri, it can't possibly cause a motor mount to fail

i'm up to 50600 but i have a 100k warranty. i would replace the damn thing with something that doesn't have liquid but thats not an option as of yet.

have the dealer fix it then, if it's under warranty

the more you drive around on it like that, the more stress it puts everywhere else

got the motor mount replaced for free but the rough idle is still there. I'm convinced it has something to do with the fuel delivery. It happens with the stock air box on too and the throttle body is clean AND the spark plugs are brand new. I'm thinking something is clogged but I'm not sure.

thats the mount they replaced. thats why i have to go through all the other possiblities for a rough idle.

Has it been a while since you installed your sri?
When i had my CAI installed i experienced rough idling for a few hundred miles fater i installed it.
Otherwise you could take a look at the maf sensor although that would fire a CEL.

its been probably 1k miles since i installed the sri. I did get a code for the MAF at one point but I cleaned it out and haven't had a code since.
