   Hi people i have just got in work on the way home i turned the corner and heard a pop now when you go to rev the car it vibrates like no tomorrow, fine in neutrul just when the car is been revved does anyone have any ideas what this can be? checked the exhaust its not that, the noise seems to be coming from the front could it be the engine mounts? if so how do you check?
   many thanks
   Dan

   Yup sounds like an engine mount. Pop the bonnet and see of the engine is slanted and see if you can move the engine by hand.

   so if theres movement in the engine its more than likely an engine mount? is it still safe to drive? also dont spose anyone knows where to get engine mounts from?
