Q: Motor mounts - 2004 Cadillac DeVille

asked by on November 01, 2016

I changed 2 (front and rear) motor mounts on my caddy and it still sounds like it did before. Someone told me there are 4 mounts. One on each side also. Is this true? Engine still jumps like it did before.

My car has 85000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
