So I noticed this click sound when I give my Saturn gas and let off. Its not very loud. It kinda seemed like a motor mount but there isn't any vibrations while idling and the motor doesn't seem to move lot. Strut mounts are good suspension is tight. It does it when giving it gas and letting off only when driving doesn't do it if revved in nuetral. The top transmission mount was replacedas well. All help is welcome thank you guys
 
This is cheap, but that transmission dogbone mount under the battery that you replaced? Go in there and retorque its bolts.
 
Good suggestion great minds think alike I did that first thing. Wasn't it though

this is why I shouldn't be teaching my fiance how to drive she is [censored] on cars
 
If its a clunk letting off gas look into the differential and diff fluid if you have one. Old Transmission fluid can cause that clunk too.
 
Its a 5sp I just changed the fluid about 2000milea ago. I hope its nothing in the transmission.

it does it when you hit the gas and when you let off. Basically when the engine shifts. But only while driving
 
Shhhh don't say that!!!! So is that a common symptom of a diff pin failing a faint click noise when hitting gas and again once you let off?
 
Think I've found the problem I had my gf start and shut the car off because I figured out it'll do it then to and you can feel it on the lower. Dog bone mount. Mount looks good but that's where it is coming from
 
which lower? I assume the other one by the crank pulley?

the part is the same part number, there are two of them. Probably your tight new one put stress on the other older one. They are a system and best changed all at once, if you're rich like scrooge mcduck.

I said when I replaced the first one I should do the other one but funds are limited. and then blew it off and well it started making noise but now its all good
