I got rear ended HARD a couple months back and a loud popping noise started. I Changed out the 3 motor mounts (They were destroyed) and the popping noise has now died down but it is still there.

It mostly happens when going over speed bumps (Clanking) or in 1st gear (Popping).

I've read there is a 4th mount that holds the transmission in place could this be bad? Though I'm actually leaning towards the CV joints, even though they don't pop when I turn.

Any thoughts?
 
This is what I replaced

PART # 1 / A6657 , OEM STYLE , front motor mount

PART # 1 / A4601 , OEM STYLE , front right motor mount

PART # 1 / A6662 , OEM STYLE , rear motor mount


Is there a fourth one that is missing?!
 
Thanks, well I spun out and hit a rail at idk @ what speed and it ended up messing up the frame... my brothers shop spent 2 days straightening it back up... idk if such an impact was hard enough to mess them up but all I know is a week later the popping started.

I'd go back there and ask whats up with the noise but I don't want to bug them since they did the work for free
