Idle vibration

Chaulklet · 01-21-2020, 08:35 PM

So way back in 2010/2011 my parents had leased a 335d and it was a great car. Fast forward to today and I'm looking to get my own. Currently looking at an m-sport with 112k miles on it and I cant say I remember the car having an idle vibration like a 4 cylinder.

The dealer that is selling says the shop they had look over it didn't mention any abnormalities, but 112k miles...

let me know what you think, thanks!

Engine mounts commonly wear out by 100k. When worn, they lead to increased vibration.

Could be the harmonic dampener beginning to fail. Engine mounts. Or just the normal diesel vibration
