2001 2.2 HDi SX

 

I am experiencing deep vibrations through the car; this only happens on overrun (but not always) and can be cancelled by dipping the accelerator or the clutch.

Any thoughts.

More info as requested by Ronin

 

The car runs very well and has done nearly 90k. Mpg could be better, 33 on short runs, 28 towing a caravan, but service is due.

 

Intermittently, when taking my foot of the accelerator, the whole car vibrates; I think it comes from the engine. The vibration will normally disappear when it slows to less than 20, also it rarely occurs over 50 mph.

 

It will disappear immediately on accelerating again, or if I dip the clutch momentarily.

This has been happening for a few months and has not got worse.

 

Brakes and wheel balancing are all good.

Sorry Cloughie can you be more specific m8?

Give us a full run down on what you are feeling, hearing on one particular event or time frame etc. There could be many things that could be the problem m8. We can try and help you but a little more info makes sure that we can get a good starting point and give you the right advice ok m8. Don't scimp on any detail no matter how small. ;)

 

It could be clutch/flywheel, engine /gearbox mounts, diesel fueling pump issues, sensor problems, braking or even belt/timing issues. The extra info you give will help a lot
