Default I have a clunk

Well... when ever i let off the gas or get on the gas the car kinda settles (M6 76k) i put in one of those poly trans mounts and it didnt seem to help. Could it be the motor mounts? or is something loose that i should check?

Check your rear suspension bolts, bushings and u-joints.
