Okay guys, i have changed the tranmission mounts and some old exhaust parts i thought could be making the issue worse. Also brand new glowplugs tranmission fluid…Still lits of vibration when the air con is switched off. Starting to wonder if the one or more of thebelt pullies are malfunctioning.

its just a hunch although i dont want to go hunting after spares and such until im a bit more sure thats the case, tried to get a shot of them here – mounts

not been able to do a power balance test, the idle speed is about 9000-1000, soon as i accelerate the vibration dissapears. car drives great!

engine does not have excessive movement from their mounts when looking in the engine bay upon changing gears and flicking air con on and off.

additionally, I checked the autobox mounts just now and theve rotted out some. looked quite shredded up inside..both sides had a look at that general area whilst i had someone change gears and accelerating and i can see some vibration on the transmission box

tried to have a look at the pullies esp for the aircon but may have to do that in a few days when i have the time to get the bash plate off again.
