broken mounts not bad, my dad had an old car, and he could hear stuff dragging and scraping whenever he accelerated, took it to a mechanic, figured the car was scrap, but the mechanic replaced a few brackets and it was only 100.00 USD. Not so bad, considering what deadly noises on touching the gas could have meant.

NEWSFLASH BUDDY, LOOK AT YOUR LAST 4 POSTS! BWAHAHAHA

Holy crap, just chill man.

Anyways, badluck, just take it to a shop... hopefully it IS just a busted motor mount and not anything too serious. With three broken mounts at one time my whole engine would shake when I switched from Park to Reverse or R to D... but with your car it still could just be a broken motor mount.

Why don't you look under the hood and see for yourself? It's pretty easy to spot a broken motor mount. (Well, it was in my car, at least :p)

My car did a similar thing. It was a broken transmission mount. Cost ~$550 to fix at a big dealership.
