Default Issue at WOT clunk? kinda

so under WOT in any gear the car still pulls very hard, however i noticed today on my way to work that after like a second or two i get 1 or 2 like clunk/jerking feelnot the noise clunk but like the front tires loose traction and then gain it but i know that isnt the problem cause it happens at all speeds. I maybe wanna say its mounts but i just replaced the engine ones under a year ago but im gonna take a look at the trannymounts in a day or so when i domy oil change and i got it on the lift.

But yea if any1 has experienced this the help is appreciated. and whats popular concensus on tranny fluid? anything 75w90? like motul or redline? or the mobil1?

I had the same clunk noise and it turned out to be my front CV boots went bad and I lost all my grease and fried my bearings. But i dont know it could be a number of things.

either something wasnt done right or when the boot was ripped and you were driving on it that some crud got in there and never got cleaned out, now you might be looking at replacing your cv joint completely...happened to me..and it could be tie rods. wheel bearings, i mean a clunk could be a number of things..exactly where and what side is it coming from??

It can be a number of things, from front suspension, sway bars, drive shafts
Then snub mount, engine & trans mounts.

If you want to get aggressive with the car, get a TSB, &/or snub mount.
