Ive been having and on going issue with a noise i hear from time to time that i thought to be my drive axle but im thinking it might be my motor mounts. I was under the hood today reving the engine from under the hood to mess with my bov and i couldnt help but to notice how much my motor moves?? is this normal to me it looks excessive, i mean i know there should be some movement but it just looks like alot to me? also u use to get a pop on hard acceleration but i havent heard it in a long time probably since i removed my mounts when i did the timing belt and turbo kit. i did notice that several were cracked but i figured this was normal wear. A broken motor mount would indicate the whole mount needing replacment or just the inserts? sorry if these questions seem dumb but i been searching and im not finding what im looking for. Also if i were to replace them i might as well get a kit and do them all right? seen some posts about window cauk or something but i dont know. someone help me out here? what should i look for to test my mounts and what do i replace. i believe at one time i have taken them all loose and dont remember any of them being a problem?

the motor mount is probably fine unless the cracks are all the way though if so you can use 3m window weld about 18 a bottle (caulking gun)or there is motor mount kits for about 60$. the motor is supposed to move a little about 2 inchs or so at most. hope this helped. the poping noise could also be a ball joint. common problem espcially if you haven't had them replaced
