Weird noise on take off

i have a 2007 tl and when i take off from a stop my car makes a weird creaking noise . It only does it right on take off. The noise comes from the front end. Also if sitting in park and i just tap to gas there is a slight clunk noise i can hear and feel kind of in the pedal. it just started doing this a few days ago does anyone have any ideas?

Well, all bets are off now that I know that. Could also be suspension. You probably need to have it looked at.

Do a search, there is at least one DIY on replacing motor mounts and tons of threads on them.
