Hi, my car engine moves. I have gone to the mechanic he changed right side mount of the car the rest of the mounts he said are good. But when I went to the mechanic to see my car I changed the the gear from d to r the engine moved and I can feel because the engine moves too much. Full engine move back and forth. I do not know what to do I have wasted too much money but still problem is there.

Good afternoon,

Can you post a copy of the receipt of the work you had done?

There are three mounts and one engine strut which controls the movement of the motor.

Did he charge you for a diagnostic for this? if he did and it did not fix the problem, you are not responsible for his mis diagnosis of the issue. I would stop payments on your payment as this is his issue not yours.

Is there a way you could take a video and load it on this site? Some engines do move a lot others not as much. Perhaps seeing it move would help.
