Default bang under hard braking and launching

hi all

my car has done this for ever, and i remember seeing a thread about it previously.

From time to time, not every time if i launch my car or jump on the brakes really hard - i.e. abs going off i get a really solid bang from under the car. now I'm pretty sure it is either the engine or transmission hitting the underside of the car, but i am just wondering what does it and what the solution is - i.e. stiffer engine/trans mounts or is it the dog bone mount that isn't stiff enough

any ideas

and no there are no broken mounts etc, and it is not a suspension or brake noise but more a super solid bang when the car is jumping around.

cheers

Tom
