Well that’s extremely unfortunate.... ‘ within tolerance ‘.... I would certainly understand if you decide to sell, I wouldn’t put up with very obvious vibrations at road speed. I’m very sensitive to anything like that in my cars so it’s either something I would have sorted out or sell.
I hope you do get it sorted for you piece of mind
Good luck |
Take your car up to the speed that it shakes, put it in neutral, shut the engine off. If it still shakes, it's not the engine or torque converter.
