...1)well just a little while ago i was on queens blvd, anyways...while downshifting from 3rd to 2nd i heard a loud POP...this is the first time i ever heard it...wut could it be?, should i worry about it?...car still drives feels fine, the only thing is my oil was a little low, and the sound came on durring hard turns...thats one...
2)while putting some oil in, i noticed my motor was a little loose...when i would push down on the bottom left side of the intake manifold, the motor seemed kinda loose, could thisbe one of the upper mounts?...i have the turn2 bottom front mount...should i worry about it?...will my motor hit my hood?, should i drive easy?...thanks in advance for any info/help...

my car was making the popping noise when I went around turns. this disappeared the day I installed the 2 turn2 upper mounts. coincidence? I think not!
