Default 2000 Dodge Neon Vibration

Howdy fellers! Ok, My steering wheel feels like a jackhammer. I replaced all the mounts, upper, lower, rear, and transmission. I cleaned the Idle Air Control Valve. I sprayed starting fluid over the vacuum lines and nothing. Do you guys have any other suggestions?

Was the engine mount put in the exact same spot as the old one? Were the torque struts aligned?

I did what u said on the rear mount Mr. Darth. I used a marker to trace it then installed the new one. On the upper I had to raise the engine to align the bolt, then lower the engine to align the lower just to get them started. On the transmission I just slapped it on. You had a diagram were the upper had to be at a measurement 119 mm and I didnt do that. It was getting dark. If I loosen the upper and lower and get the upper at that measurement do u think that will fix my problem? Thanks Mr. Darth

I can't say it will fix it for sure, but it has for some people. For some odd reason, some cars just develop a vibration (like mine) and it doesn't go away. No one has been able to find a fix for those. The others...just make sure the torque struts are aligned.
