I'm trying to trace a loud clunk/click that only shows up during real hard driving at autocross. It started out as one loud clunk two events ago and looked things over briefly and didn't find anything. At this last event it showed up more and something is really not right. It seems to happen on hard accel when tires slip a bit and gain traction again or under real hard braking. I thought was gonna be pass side mount but all bolts there were tight. I do notice some movement of engine coming from that rubber mount but not sure how
Much is normal??? Does anyone have any ideas what I should check next?


Thanks

Possibly the rear motor mount. A known issue if you haven't changed it yet.

Some have also mentioned loose bolts on the mounts. You might want to actually check tightness of the bolts on the motor mounts first with a lift on the motor to reduce load while you tighten them.
