Once again I'm scouring thru the posts looking for answers - love this forum

Noticed the other day that I can feel some "shifting" in the gear shift lever when accelerating and sometimes when letting off the accelerator. Not bad enough to call it a "jerking" of the gear shifter, and I really almost need to be intentionally "less smooth" with the accelerator to get it to cause the gear shifter to move.

So - how much "shifting / jerking" is normal and when do we start looking at the front motor mount (or transmission mounts?).

Thanks!
