Were the mounts Honda parts? If not that is MOST likely your trouble!! I almost lost a good customer trying to save them some money by using aftermarket mounts on a car just like yours, replaced that junk with OE Honda mounts now everybody's happy!!
(Especially the top mount on drivers side.) Start there first.
