Check your exhaust and intake for leaks.

Check the intake hose at least to the filter. For the exhaust...when the car is cold, plug up the exhaust pipe for a minute and feel for air along the exhaust pipe.

Talking

If it's coming from the engine itself, put your ear in there and find where its loudest, but watch your clothes from wrapping around the belts and dragging you in.

Does it sound like a Saturn V or the Space Shuttle?


But seriously.... where is the vibration coming from?

Explain the vibration in more details would help. For example does it sound like a loose metal, or is the car vibrating along with the engine, etc.

i had a vibration too about 2 weeks ago.
It was the hose that comes from the steeringpump (or how do you call it)
It was leak. Is there oil on the passengerside from the motor?
