View Full Version : Annoying vibration

Over the last year or so my FL2 HSE has developed an annoying(but not really loud) vibration during acceleration in normal auto.
It appears to be perhaps in the firewall /dash area, and is RPM dependent ie as the engine goes from around 1400 to 1700 thru the lower gears, I can hear an annoying vibration.
happens with aircon on or off, and very hard to pin down.
Increasing rpm while stopped doesn't cause it, so it appears to be dependent on engine load.
Any ideas?

Does it happen in 'Command Shift' mode?

If it doesn't, it's probably something with your gearbox/torque converter and as a starter I'd probably change the gearbox oil & filter.

If not, I'm wondering if it could be anything with the induction system as the FL2 does some clever stuff with the air-flow into the engine.

Mine was my toll tag. I found it unbelievable as it sounded like it was coming from the dash near the radio.
