hello. this is my first post ever so bear with me. thank you. i too have a shaking motor. it's a 300td 1982, china blue. i bought it at an auction not too long ago and have taken it upon myself to fix those things that require attention. the motor shakes something fierce and has from the get go. i replaced the motor mounts with the help of a friend and it seemed as though the shaking only got worse. with a little luck i found my way here and through reading up on similar problems, i am leaning towards replacing the engine shocks and shock mounts as well. does anyone have any advice in this regard? do i need to lift up the motor again? should i try something else first? the car shakes worse in drive than park or nuetral and reverse is some kind of blender shakin. i want to say that i can feel it moving around at up to around 30 mph, but maybe im trippin. please help me out if you can. thank you. shoots
