Default shaking when in low revs, 2003 stick coupe

Hi, I drive a 2003 honda accord coupe, 6 speed stick shift, 3 litre v6

when I am in low gear, especially second gear, but also first and third, I get shaking when in low gears. A way to overcome this seems to be to add more gas to have higher revs, then it doesn't happen. It also seems to occur especially when shifting (for example downshifting to 2nd gear) and making a turn. Don't know if that has to do with it though.

I have no idea what it could be, the clutch was changed like 3 months ago btw.

Any ideas on what it could be and how expensive the repair could be?

Thanks

Have motor mounts inspected closely. Damaged motor mount may allow excessive engine movement, especially under acceleration or deceleration.

Fairly expensive repair, depending on mount. Worst is rear mount, possibly $300-$500. These are guesses, I don't know.

good luck
