I've noticed recently when the engine is idling in traffic for example it sends an intermitent vibration through the car. Is this what they call a lumpy engine? How can i sort this?

Could be the engine mounts worn? Does it feel like it rocks much when driving, changin gear?

Id say engine or gearbox mounts. Does the gearstick wobble like fuck when the engine is running?

Could be the engine/gear box mounts, or the fireing of the engine isnt right. (miss fire) ciol pack sparkies etc...

well had engine mounts replaced recently because one snapped, serviced 2 weeks ago with sparks and gearbox was reconned 5months ago. So does that cancel out the suggestions so far?


No gearstick is fine no wobbling there
