Q: Car vibration while stationary, on startup and when giving gas.
When I start my car up It vibrates really loud, then when I put it in drive it goes away until I give it a little gas then the vibration comes back using around 1 rpm. I’ve tested this while driving and in park, the vibration still happens when I’m holding the brake and giving gas.
My car has 146000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
