#74524, "slight tinny engine noise on clutch engage..."


          

Ok..heres the issue..before the winter i had my headgasket and stuff redone..when i got the car back it made this bad noise so i brought it back to the shop and they forgot to tighten my front motor mount! wtf...so now i just put my rims on my car(18's and pretty heavy) now i get this tinny noise whenever i and not sure if the rims are contribing to it and making it noticable:

Start the car
Turn off the car
engage the clutch and drive

Seems only when the engine has to "move".. could it be the motor mounts again? I did notice that my front motor mount only has 1 bolt in it too.

Any help would be great

it just seems like whenever the engine moves it makes a noise that sounds something like between the engine andt he tranny...engine moving being the clutch engaging, car starting or turning off and so forth..it just dont sound good
