Def88 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Hi All, just wondering if I could get some advice on my auto 200tdi. When the car is started in park there is a bit of vibrations for a few minutes whilst the engine is cold. Once the engine is warm and the car is in neutral the idle is very smooth. However, when the car is put in drive and say I’m stopped at the lights, there is some vibrations, but as soon as my foot even touches the throttle in drive when I’m stopped it smooths out completely. I’m wondering if maybe the idle speed is too low? or could it be something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def88 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Engine mounts were replaced a couple of months ago, but I’m a bit concerned the garage has used some cheap mounts with not much ability of soaking up vibrations. I’ve looked up Glencoyne engineering mounts, so it could be a mixture of both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Cheap mounts and Gen Parts mounts are the same - the rubber is too hard for the Tdi and you get vibration at low rpm. The Glencoyne mounts, or the old stock Bearmach mounts from Emberton Imperial will sort it out without messing about with injection pump settings.

Def88 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Perfect, thank you both. I’ll get those mounts bought and replaced and see if that sorts the issue out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
