Excessive Idle Vibration

aaccon · 04-15-2012, 03:05 AM

Hi

My 320d (2010) has started to have a real vibration when at idle.
The car is working OK - but you notice at idle the vibration in the steering wheel. I lifted the hood and the plastic cowling on the motor was really shuddering and vibrating.

Anyone seen this before - and is this the sign of something amiss ?

Cheers...
