It's not uncommon for the d17a2's to develop a worn motor mount.

Have someone get in your car. Set the e-brake, put car in gear and power break it. You stand outside under the hood with a flashlight, mirror or whatever else is necc to get a good look at all the mounts. There may be cracks and whatnot that you cannot see without torquing the engine.
