You should feel vibration if its Engine mounting problem.

Noises could be other problem.

Noises when moving off could be due to belts. What's your mileage?

4 yrs, 80,000km and your engine mounting needs replacement?

That is premature wear.

S'pore roads are silky smooth unlike those in Johore Bahru or Jakarta.

I was quoted 420 to replace 3 pcs of engine mount.  Is the price reasonable ?

Finally changed my engine mount plus front bake pads altogether $408.  The other workshop I asked previously quoted me $605 for the same job. But of course my brake pads are those cheap cheap one.
