How common are engine/trans mounts going out?
Hi, sometimes I feel this weird slight vibration through the gas pedal when casually accelerating from a stop with the flow of traffic. Sometimes it feels clunky when shifting from drive to reverse, etc.
Also, a few weeks ago, probably the last time we had some rain, all the droplets were beaded up on the hood (from wax) and I started the car to warm up while I checked the mail. As I'm walking back towards the car I notice every beaded up drop of rain is just shimmering with vibration in the bright sunlight.
I bought the car at the end of March, exactly 100k, adult owned, most dealer maintained. Does this sound like a mount? I did some googling on my phone after the shimmering and came across a posting somewhere (can't find it now) and a fellow replaced a trans mount and bearing carrier or something and that fixed his vibrations.
