My '91 9k 5 speed (73k mi) also has a tendency to vibrate and has become more pronounced since the weather got
cold. Following a cold start, the noise is most noticeable, but goes away after several minutes of idling. Last Sept. I
took the car into the mechanic where they replaced the top motor mount and said the lower right looked
fine. It's my understanding, however, that the inspection process is a little more involved than just eye-balling it from
above, and if the top mount is shot there's a pretty good likelihood that the lower mount is worn as well. They're
hydraulic and most likely affected by lower temperatures which would account for the increase in sound. At least that's my theory.
