New ds motor mount moaning......what's up? 200 1986

I installed a new driver's side motor mount last week and now it seems to moan especially on cold mornings (50 degress or lower). When it's warm out, it's very subtle. I can feel and hear the noise coming from the floor board behind the brake pedal area. Should I spray some silicone onto the mount? When I rev the engine up, it doesn't moan, only when I am moving or braking at parking lot speeds.
Thanks.

    X, when you changed the mount, were you sure to tighten all the hardware? Also make sure that the four body to crossmember bolts are secure.

    I can imagine the noise in my mind though, it is a creaking like stepping over a old wood floor right? Maybe somthing is loose and allowing the shifting of metal parts.

      When I do the PS this weekend, I recheck the hardware tightness then. Thanks for the suggestion.
