Auto gearbox noise

Hi,

My 190d auto has developed a rumble when you select reverse and keep your foot on the brake , I'm hoping its perhaps the exhaust rattling against the underside of the body but I don't think so , it doesn't make the noise in any other gear ????

Any ideas what I should check first

Cheers

Check the engine and gearbox mounts.

Check the exhaust too, of course. Rule it out, or in even a.s.a.p.

Just checked and I'm sure it's the engine mounts as when I pull engine to one side on tick over the noise stops , next question is how easy is it to change the mounts, I think I can see them with some sort of round silver metal cover with a stud in the middle , I imagine it needs to be up on ramps for access below ? And have the engine supported with a jack and piece of wood to protect sump ?
