I have quite a bit of vibration in cool weather with all fans and the AC off, it gets increasingly worse with the addition of those factors.

I was doing some reading and it seems some diagnose bad motor mounts by keeping the brake on, putting it in drive (and then reverse) and giving it a little gas to see where the engine moves.

I don't know how much movement is considered normal (I would think none) but when I am in drive the front of the engine lifts and in reverse the rear of the engine lifts up a bit.
