Is my motor mount broke? 09 R3
 
Have a very weird problem and feeling something is wrong. If I'm going down the road around 65mph and just goose the throttle the car kind of feels like it's twisting or pulling harder with the right rear and it turns to the left, then when I let off like it dips and goes back to the right. Very uneasy feeling..

how is your car at idle? Does it vibrate more then normal?

mjones53 04-20-2011 04:45 PM

haven't really noticed it being any different.

thanks

My engine mount was just diagnosed with a collapsed engine mount. From what i noticed, it vibrates the car when it is at idle.

thanks, guess I'll take it to mazda so they can tell me they can't find anything lol

almost sounds like a differential problem? It will be hard to verify.
Or maybe the alignment is off? I would check your toe settings.

It might be your alignment. You have an 09 and the motor mounts is already bad? :scratchhe

Mazda says the aligement is perfect and just driving
Down the road it tracks straight

Check the rear shocks to see if one is leaking oil.
I had a car that had a blown right rear shock a couple of years ago, and did exactly the same thing you are describing.
