I have a 1998 C70 2.3 T5, 4 speed auto.

I was changing some of the vacuum pipes when I noticed that I could rock the engine a little more than usual and I was getting a grinding / metal on metal sound.

I have already replaced both the bulkhead / upper mount and the one next to the crank pulley. The transmission mount looks ok, it sounds like the noise is coming from elsewhere.

I'd like to know whether this age / spec of car is likely to have the round fluid filled pillow mounts, as I know they are not on all cars.

I'm also looking for a guide to replacing them. As it stands I can't even see where they might be so I assume this is going to be a bit of a pig to do?
