My engine seems to rattle back and forth more than id like. How much is normal? Does anyone have, or can they take, a short video of the engine on idle so I could compare please.

Are there any mounts I should investigate?

    Well the engine doesn't move as such so wouldn't think its a mount problem, but will check them. It just wobbles to the point where if ive got the air con on, you can hear what sounds like the fan wobbling on the bearing but its the engine wobbling in the air stream. Its annoying. Happens driving or idling. 

    Could it just be a bit dirty and not running as smooth as possible?
