My IS makes a strange vibration at low speed-i.e clutch out rolling along at walking pace.
It comes through the floor and has the feel of a knocking exhaust,(its not that).
Could it be a prop bearing or similar? Its fine at any other speed or under load only noticeable when slowly pulling out of junctions or in traffic.Now I know that the M42 engine is not what you would call smooth but it seems drive related rather than engine.
Any ideas???
