I cant figure it out...whenever i take off slowly from a dead stop..i hear a loud popping noise...or if i give it a decent amount of throttle i will hear a crunching popping noise which seems to be coming from somewhere in the middle of the engine bay. At first it was just a rubber on rubber kind of grinding noise but now its popping. I do believe that my motor mounts needed to be changed because of the violent motor shaking i usually had to deal with. My car has always felt like a spungy ride..bouncing back and forth violently. Could this be my motor mounts completely gone or did i possibly #### something else up? One other thing..i replaced my passanger side axle not more than 3000 miles ago and it has a tear in it..i have been driving around with that tear for like 500 miles..could this have something to do with this? Any help will be appreciated.
