Maxiiboy, I ended up getting some beck arnley mounts, and the front one, I got the electronic one that is required. Man both my mounts i replaced, the front and the right side, were tore up badly. The right side one is what was causing my car to have a rattle being heard when idling, and the front one was what was causing there to be a clunk noise upon accelerating out of a stop, as well as hard shifting and even the car to feel a slight lunge forward just before coming to a stop. I also replaced throttle positioning sensor after reading some symptoms that can occur when one is starting to go out or is actually out.
It said that the tps sensor sends a message basicly to the computer letting it know when the engine needs to shift and the position of your throttle. well i figured it must not be working right cause the engine allways seemed to be shifting late cause the way the engine sounded like it was laboring and whinning out before s*** and even sounded funny when it did shift, like a real slow long shift instead of smooth and quick. Well man oh man, what a difference now the way the car runs, shifts, and feels overall. I kid you not, it feels like it did when it was new and it is a 2001. Man it shifts soooo smooth and with the new mounts there is no more clunking at any point what so ever. now goona replace coil packs, knock sensor, maybe even the maf sensor cause they have all never been replaced and we have 142,000 miles on it. Very very happy how good the car runs now.
