Default Polly Upper Mount

Installed the polyurethane upper engine mount as well as the upper torque mount from IPD last weekend. Since then, when I come to a complete stop, and you get that little feeling like you go backwards right at the end of it, well anyways, when that happens I get this little "creak" and it sounds like it's coming right from that area. Could that just be the fact that I have two new engine mounts, one being stiff, that they're just "settling" in? I don't know what else it could be since it's only happened after I installed them. Curious if that happened to anyone else who has used them.

You mean the bolt that actually goes into the engine?

I took it for another test drive and it was obvious that's where the sound was coming from, but everything seemed tight, maybe I have to tighten the bolts that hold the torque mount. I checked it, I tightened it some, and then tightened the torque mount. I don't know, I thought I had tightened everything pretty good. Maybe I'm just being paranoid.
