Vibration At Tickover

[johntom]

Hi

today whilst stuck in a traffic jam, i noticed that the car was vibrating at tickover (about 800rpm). The vibration could be felt through the steering wheel and pedals etc, but disapeared when i raised the revs to 1000rpm, the car also had more of a rattle to it? The car is a 2004 HDI manual estate with 77k on the clock. Are there any commons problems that would cause this, it almost feels like it's not running on all cylinders below 1000rpm?

I might be barking up the wrong tree, but might it possibly be your dual-mass fly wheel? I seem to remember that this was one if its symptoms along with a 'tweeting' noise.

 

Mine does vibrate at tickover (fairly intermittently), but as the clutch doesn't need changing yet, I have done nothing about it yet. Seem to remember that the solid flywheel was around £100.

Hi

thanks for your reply. It doesn't seem to have done it again since, however it does have a vibration when started from cold. The tacho doesn't jump about, but the car feels lumpy and rough at tickover. As soon as the car is driven it seems ok?
