Re: Correction: "... when rapped..."

There's just one engine mount (front) and two transmission mounts.
The engine mount is really a wear item and should be replaced every 50K miles.
The transmission mounts can go much longer and are generally not replaced unless they leak.
A very worn out front engine mount can certainly create a sound clunk, especially when accelerating or breaking
Happy Boxstering,
