Yes - I think new motor mounts are due regardless, I just dont know how much more money I want to put into this car... Already spent about $2500 this year. I did have to get new belts because the pulley came off from the metal post going into the block... I was about 100 miles from home and luckily the shop was able to get me on the road within 4 hours. that cost me like $600. new tires, brakes & rotos, front half axles, tie rods and alignment. This car is like new, LOL.
Well, I can tell you from experience you will need to do the OPG soon. When you are under there doing the mounts, have a look at the front right of the OP. If you see oil, you will probably need to do that.

I understand about having to throw more money at a car with 162,000 miles but it is what is is, things wear out. You could always pony up for a new car that needs zero maintenance but you will be tossing at least $600/mo at the payment.

Or you could always bring out the 308 or 348 for your daily driver
