Default CV???? engine mounts???

I have a new development in my ride ...... maybe what I thought were tranny precursers are not really, but another problem(s).

When I am accelerating moderately (~65% WOT), my wheels chirp on the 1-2 shift. It seems like when I blew out the engine mounts, but it's not really doing it off the line. Also, for the past few weeks, I've heard a slight creak when comming to a full stop (3 mph to 0).

I plan to check everything out this weekend, but any ideas before I do would be appreciated.

I think that I'm gonna find a busted CV and/or multiple engine or tranny mounts broken ....... maybe a suspension bushing or 2 also.

I've also had the same symptoms in a Saturn where the starter clutch was slipping out of place AFTER being started...

It would slight out slightly and jiggle around... it'd make a screeching noise , and an occasional tink tink sound...

not that this could be it, as i know nothing of the accord's starter..

I need to do the tranny cooler, but I don't want to move the airhorns...... guess I'm going to have to. I'm starting to lean toward the engine mounts since this morning I noticed a slight chirp on the 1-2 shift and a lot more on 2-3. Maybe I busted all of them!?!

Dang dude! Busted all your mounts.


Put the 403 on the far right side. Tons of room over there, well at least on the i4. You'll need like an extra 2-3 feet of trans hoses than what is provided. You should do the 403 asap. I swear it added like 5hp!!!!! jkjkjkjk
