WEll, normallly a motor mount problem you will notice when you "accelerate" instead of "decelerating". Are you sure it is not coming from rear end?

Got the exact same problem after pulling the trans to install new clutch. Some have said the trans mount may be loose, I will check it this weekend. If you find out what it is before then let me know.
