two issues.. please help..

Two issues I'm having. Getting really tired of this bullshit.

1) The passenger side motor mount seems to have gone bad. I'm getting alot of "chattering" from it. Seems like the motor isn't sitting snugly in there anymore. I've been having an issue lately where the t/c light is on and the car is shifting very hard. It has seemingly damaged the mount. Does this make sense? Likely not the actual mount, but the bushing. Can I get a new bushing thrown in at the dealer or would this be better to put the poly mounts in..?? I knew the cars stupid hard shifting would eventually catch up to it. Stupid ass car.

2) The car has a really low idle when backing up. I'll be backing into a space and the car will dip to around 500 and maybe even stutter a tad. It has fresh Iridums (about 4 months old) and I always do everything I'm supposed to maintenance-wise. Is there anything I could be missing..??

Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is getting very old, very quickly.

I think that's wha they do in reverse, I've had bout ten manual cars an they all seem to dump to low rs when in reverse, but the Balt seems like it almost wants to stall sometimes, I thinkin it's by because we really don't rev when we disengage theclutch an the load ail make it do that, personally I wouldn worry
