I had some problems EGR valve, which meant as well as a new EGR I needed a new manifold and 2 new injectors. I'm pleased to say everything is fine except one thing

I now have an incredibly wobbly gearstick when the car is under load. It is absolutely fine when idle, and general driving it is fine. But if I accelerate hard I get a lot of vibrations. Also when pulling away quickly I sometimes get a slight judder as if I have lost of power for half a second.

Could the Engine mount or gearbox mounts have been broken during repair?

My mpg and performance is fine otherwise.


Any advice would be appreciated

I looked up how to test the engine mounts by holding the brake and putting the engine under load.

Here is a video of me attempting it
