Motor mounts don't make noise themselves, but the motor moving might. With the hood up and a helper stand to the side of the car. Put the car in gear, while holding the brake pedal down, and give it some gas. Do the same thing in reverse. You should see the motor physically move if there is a broken mount.

How do you replace the motor mounts on PT Cruiser?

To replace the motor mounts on a PT Cruiser, the motor must be held in place and kept from falling with jacks designed to hold the weight. Then the old mounts can be removed and new ones put in. If the motor mount is not readily accessible from the top, some engine parts might need to be removed, like the battery. Never go underneath the vehicle to remove the old motor mounts.

Can you put an 2.2 liter evgine in a Honda civic?

If it is a Honda engine then yes you can. It sounds like your talking about an H-22 out of a Prelude. Look for Hasport motor mounts, I'm fairly certain they make some. You will have to grind your old motor mounts out, drill through your frame, and bolt in the new mounts.
