vibrations through the floor

[jonny323i]

iv got vibrations when idling or if i rev the engine coming through the floor and peddles iv replaced engine and gearbox mountings and i cant seem to find anything catching on the body. The vibrations are at stand still so i dont think it can be the prop bearing as this is with the car out of gear

Does it idle rough?

[jonny323i]

it did but thats mostly cured now

[Curr946]

is the exhaust close to the floor under the drivers floor pan?

[jonny323i]

no mate i dont know why i think this but im not sure what condition the clutch is in and im wondering if its degrading and causing excess vibration

[DanThe]

Could be a loose flywheel!

[jonny323i]

that serious has that been known the reason i wondered about the clutch is i know the sump gasket was leaking when i had it which is now sorted but i think oil got into it

[DanThe]

Yes, happened to gareth on here, I think he had clutch judder which made him pull the box off. Either way if your engine and gearbox mounts are normal rubber type and the exhaust is mounted properly you shouldnt have vibrations like that

[jonny323i]

Is it just a case of tightening it up or am I in trouble if it is loose

[DanThe]

If its loose you need to take the bolts out and inspect them, then loctite them back in to the correct torque

[jonny323i]

do you happen to know what setting that is
