Hi all this is getting worse since I first noticed it the other day.
When pulling away or changing gear into low rpm I get a big wobble from the gear stick and through every pedal? Got to the stage I don't want to drive the car.
I checked the stabiliser mount which seemed new. Could it be the other two?

Yeah, will most likely be the top mount if your bottom mount is fine.

Check that the top engine mount cup hasn't cracked.

Wobbling/vibration under load can be a sign that the driveshaft inner CV's are dying, although that's usually worse under load and at higher speeds in my experience. If the engine mounts look OK it's worth checking out.

Doesn't look to hard to take off?
