My 2008 honda civic hybrid 1.3L shudders when i accelerate. I heard that this could be do to engine mounts, so i swapped all three of them out. The issue still persists. Does anyone know any other possible reasons this could be happening?

Re: 2009 Civic Hybrid Shudder
Should have checked if the mounts were actually bad before swapping them out. Could be that there's something wrong internally in the trans. Hows the fluid look? Level? Serviced regularly?
I don't know if it's been serviced regularly. The car has just over 30k miles on it at the moment and i got it at around 25k miles. The shudder was only slight when i first got it but recently it's begun to worry me as it's much more noticeable now. However I will check on the trans fluid and possibly swap it out
Had a shudder on my Civic Hybrid 2008 at 126,000 miles and the engine light fluttered, then went on later in the day. It turned out some coils failed on the back of the engine (rear side). It looks like some service people just replaced the front spark plugs and left the back ones to fail and put stress on the coils. I replaced 3 coils and plugs and it runs fine now.
