Thank you all!

Dieseldiehard, I'm so sorry to have copied (I swear, it was inadvertent! ) your monicker. If can change it, I will. just dont sue me just yet over some patent or trademark violation.

I can't post some pics now because my cellphone cam got busted due to some virus probably due to bluetooth but that's another story...

Anyways, I too am a bit if a DIYer. I inspected the car in the garage this afternoon and found out that due to the nuts rubbing against the, I believe that would be the transmission mount/support, it all got rounded and that would take me some time to remove those as well.

What I do remember was that there were no noticeable vibrations before the flex disc broke down. I felt the vibrations after it broke. It didn't give any signals at all before it failed, or they were too mild for me to notice.

Also, would I be correct to assume that if the motormounts were the ones problematic which then caused the flex disc failure, then I would have felt vibrations form the engine first?

What I'm gonna do first is to change the offending flex disc and use the necessary torque in tightening them bolts (thanks tangofox).

Thanks guys!
