vibration through pedals

Haga750 · May 26th, 2010, 23:09

Hi All, I've got a 2002 S60 D5 with 118k on the clock which I have owned for about 6 months.

I have an annoying problem with vibration/buzzing through the pedals and partialy the steering wheel. The vibration is quite high frequency and felt during acceleration and cruising at all speeds. It makes the rear view mirror vibrate on occasions too.

I've checked most posts regarding vibration and the engine mounts seem to be a common problem. On checking my top mount shows signs of cracking.

Would a worn top mount cause this sort of problem? or could it be a drive train issue?

Any thoughts and ideas would be most welcome.

Vibration through the pedals is usually drivetrain (could be anything from a clutch breaking down to a balance weight fallen off one of your driveshafts)

If your car is fitted with an undertray, make sure all the bolts are in place including the centre, if any are missing, they can flap arround alarmingly.
