Engine mount changed but still shakin??
I got my front mount changed out...and the mech said the other mounts are going bad... is it just a rear mount and side mount? The ride was smoother for a minute, i should have just replaced all three at once. Now it shakes a little when i accelerate fast? Is it really just the other mounts gone bad or could it be something else? If so where's the best place to buy.
DAMN its been a minute since i posted back in the TL section...back to modding for the winter

If its still shaking then it's time to look at your rear mounts and then the passenger side mounts. Not that easy to inspect the rear mounts but it's a likely culprit. If you happen to experience vibrations, then your transmission mounts are the problem.

yunginTL, stay far far away from those ebay made mounts. They are OEM mounts that have been remanufactured and sold back for a cheaper price. The problem is these mounts are solid mounts. That means there is no fluid inside it and there is no connections for you to hook up your vacuum lines to. You'll have to plug up your vacuum lines and tuck it away.
Although they'll serve as a mount to hold your engine on top of the subframe, they'll do very little to dampen your engine vibrations.
My suggestion is that you stick with the OEM mounts only if you want to regain your smooth idle and cabin equilibrium again.

ebay is an online market place. I dont believe they make engine mounts.
yunginTL: go to another mechanic and have him/her check the mounts. you can see how the motor rocks by keeping the brake down and reving your engine slightly. If there is excessive movement, the mount thereof may need replacement.
