1983 240d motor mount question

Im in need of alittle help... I just replaced the 2 front motor mounts (square ones) and the transmission mount (triangle looking one) and the car seems to vibrate alittle harder. Is there perhaps another engine mount that im missing? When i replaced the first 2 there was a noticable difference.. When the transmission mount came in a couple of days later i had it changed out and its vibrating more than it did before i changed any of them.

Did you follow any instructions in the FSM for your car which might have described a ' gauge' which you make to be sure you have placed your engine properly when doing the engine mounts ?

There is also a mount on some cars that goes forward or rearward from the deep sump to a rubber lined pocket in the cross member. Check that and I bet you'll find the new side mounts raised it enough to touch metal to metal.
