I cleaned throttle body, replace all motor mounts, checked the spark plug cables, check vacuum lines, check the crank stabilizer. But, it still vibrates when the car is in gear and stopped. What can it be?

Good morning.

Is the check engine light on?

Did you perform a compression test in all the cylinders?

That is where I would start to make sure the engine is in good condition.

No there is no check engine light. The car is great, I just do not like the annoying vibration.

Does the engine misfire?

Does it vibrate both in gear and out of gear?

Okay, thanks.

Some possibilities, harmonic balancer, flywheel, torque converter are among some of the possibilities.

Can you make a video of the engine running and upload it here to the site so we can see what it going on? Lift the hood and take it of the engine at idle. Then rev it out of gear so we can see that too.

Hard to say if it is engine or a mount issue.

This guide can help:

Please let us know what happens.
