new noise w/ trans mount

OK last night in replaced my brokem trans mount with a polyurthine one from energy supension. The mout is great but now there is a drone inside the car it seams exaust related but i am not sure. I know my exaust hanger is attached to the tailshaft of the trans so has any one had this problem?

broken one = less noise

fixed one = more noise.

How long did it take for you to figure out the mount was broken?


I didn't change mine for aorund 2-3 months got used to it being quite, tossed in my poly and now it's loud.

but, I love it and will never go back to stock.

the going trend seems to be that autos have more noise when the poly mount is installed.

my m6 doesn't seem bad, a bit more noticable, but well worth it for the solid feel.

I got dual Bullets and everything rattles like crazy and I have a ton of noise already, so I don't think the poly mount will affect me too much when I put it in...or at least I hope not.
