Right now, my car (92' 3vz-fe)tends to get a vibration going anywhere below 1,100RPM. I have been thinking that my tortion dampener might be going bad, but I'm not sure. It's seems like the only answer to me. Cause as soon as I hit 1,100RPM it settles down and the vibration is gone. Maybe it's normal, I don't know. Hit me back with some knowledge. Thanks

Any opinions? Wraith or Gibson wanna weigh in?

Yeah it's prob. one or more of the mounts. Put the car in drive and hold down the brake. Give it some gas and feel for a clunk. Do the same in reverse. Have somebody do this for you and check for play in the mounts. Careful though as to not get ran over, make sure they/you hold the brake firmly.

Well my tranny jerks when I shift it into reverse. I talked to the guys who rebuilt my tranny, they said that the motor mounts were getting worn. And that was the cause of the jerk. So would that be the cause of the vibration too?
