Vibration at idle is driving me crazy – is it the engine mounts?

    I've got a 2018 Grand Cherokee that's been vibrating more than usual when I'm sitting at a stoplight, especially in Drive with my foot on the brake. It's not a violent shake, but it's definitely noticeable and it wasn't there a few months ago. A friend of mine who works on cars took a quick look and said it might be the engine mounts starting to wear out, which apparently is pretty common on these SUVs, especially with the heat and constant stop-start traffic here . I've also noticed a slight clunk when I shift from park to drive, which I've read can be another sign of failing mounts . I'm based in Abu Dhabi and I'm looking for a workshop that can properly inspect the mounts and replace them with genuine parts if needed. I've heard that if you use cheap aftermarket mounts, you can end up with even more vibration because they don't dampen the engine movement properly. Does anyone have experience with a place in Musaffah that offers Expert Jeep Engine Mount Installation in Musaffah? I want to make sure they do a proper job and check the transmission mount while they're at it, because that can also cause similar symptoms. Any recommendations would be really appreciated.
