Took the xr6 for a drive today noticed when stopped at lights it was idling rough and a vibration, put it in neutral wasn't as bad. After looking through the forum I think it might be engine mounts stuffed. any ideas and easiest way to check the mounts

get somebody to push the accelerator reasonably when the car is sitting still with the brakes on and the engine will flex about. It should barely move. If it moves a fair bit then it's likely your mounts are farked. (most likely the driver side one due to the turbo heat cycles.)
