Unusual Vibration When Accelerating

[Robbie~F]

Hi just registered and was wondering if anyone has any ideas on this problem, I have a 2001 1.9 tdi 130 and whilst accelerating in the higher gears (4/5/6th) there is a vibration that can be felt through the car??

Are the pressures in the front tyres equal also they are matching tyres ? Your tyres might need balancing if its disapear after 60 miles an hour.

The tyres are fine, the vibration occurs at around 1500 rpm and then fades away after 2500 rpm, dual mass fly wheel nackered maybe??

Hi Robbie,

There is some usefull info in this thread concerning a shuddering and the dual mass flywheel.

hi have you checked engine mountings they would cause a vibration while pulling hard at low revs
