hey all first post here sadly not a happy one though
I have a 2003 Subaru BE legacy B4 twin turbo Auto 4 speed.
I have a bad vibration when ever im stop with the brakes on while in gear. Iv asked so many mechanics and they all say the same thing its the engine mounts.So far iv Flushed the transmission 5 times and replaced the oil filter. Although the vibration still is present, operations have differently improved allot during acceleration and gear change. When driveing the car is perfect!!!!
Iv cheeked all engine and transmission mounts and they are in good condition and no movement no cracks.
No torque binding or duty C issues.
Replaced front drive shafts with OEM subaru ones still vibratingI jacked the car up off all four wheels and done a few tests of my own to try induce the vibration. One thing i took note of was that when accelerating and stopping the wheels with the hand brake, the vibration was completely gone. Done the same thing but stopped the wheels with the service brake and the vibration was back. not sure what that means but seams to vibrate when ever the rear wheels have a positive load on the transmission.
So far i have really nothing to go on to say that its a transmission issue so im going to move onto the engine now.
If i had to put it down to something id say the engine is producing too much torque some how while at idel in gear. In the mornings when i put it in gear i have to have the brakes hard on or the car will take off.
Is anything like this possible ? too much torque while idling? too rich or lean? i dont know much about engines just the basic service knowledge.Please help me
