Not so good vibrations

[Beaconjon]

Hi all, recently my MK1 Leon TDi130 (03 plate 90K) has developed some engine vibration.

You can feel it through the steering wheel at tickover then when driving it comes through the accelerator pedal from about 2k upwards.

There's no bangs, clunks or anything like that, just a buzzy feel to the car. It pulls fine, starts fine etc.

I've had the car from new and it's been regularly serviced.

It's going into my local independant for the once over before we take it to France in a few weeks.

Could a faulty MAF be a possibility?

Cheers, Jon

Engine mount? flywheel? there are alot of possibilities.

Could be dogbone engine mounts!

Crumbs, mines not that bad mate, sorry to hear about your problems.

It went in to the local independant who recorded no fault codes on the vag com and couldnt really find much else wrong with it.

Like I said, it drives fine, pulls well but just feels buzzy sometimes. Maybe thats what 90k does to it.

Sound similar to mine, I have a nasty vibration at 1000-1500 revs (ish), fine once on the move but in traffic it is quite noisy and rough....

I removed the airbox, which helped a little, now it does it from about 1000-1300 revs. It's like a transit...
