Just got my '14 S60 back from the shop (cam seals, sprockets, timing belt replaced) and I'm now noticing a clunking from the passenger front upon acceleration. This only happens when I'm accelerating out of the complete stop and it sounds like something is shifting.
I'll see if I can capture the sound tomorrow; it's a clunk-clunk-clunk (yes, I know this description does no justice :)

Plan is to check the lug nuts, axle nut, torque mount, and sway bar linkages.
Any other ideas?

I think it's the torque mount. Though I've never seen a new torque mount, this one looks worn.
Also had my son accelerate from stop while I watched from the passenger side. The engine appears to shift a bit to the rear upon acceleration.

Can anyone confirm that I need a new torque mount? See pics.

Yes. Replace it.
Shouldn't see daylight through it right there.
