According to a TSB I've read about 1st gen proteges and what a mechanic has told me after looking at my car, it seems to be that the vibration my car experience while in D and idling is due to a bad engine mount. However when the mechanic had the car up on a lift and showed me the bad mount, he called it the read engine transmission mount. Well after doing a search online for the actaul part for my car, I've found both a rear engine mount & a transmission mount, but I know that he was only referring to 1 mount. So which is it? Do our cars have a transmission mount and if so, approximately where is the transmission mount and rear engine mounts located and would they both be easily visible from looking up at the bottom of the car. Thanks guys.

p.s. I have a 1994 protege dx SOHC with an automatic transmission

our cars have 4 engine mounts

1 on the pass side by the strut tower
1 under the batter tray on the driver side (this is the tranny mount)
1 at the front down low
1 at the rear down low

so my guess is he's refering to the rear lower mount, as the tranny mount is hard to see, even underthe car.

that part number is:
bracket = B458 39 010F
mount = B456 39 040C

or it could be these, their right and left desription leaves much to be desired.

bracket = BR70 39 030D
mount = B455 39 060E
