[QUOTE="rpmnut, post: 455588, member: 20757"] Which mechanic did you send your car to, bro? And how much did the job cost you? I had some vibration issues on my car too about two weeks after I took delivery. Everytime the gearbox shifted from 2nd to 3rd, there would be a slight vibration coming from the driveline, but only at part throttle loads - on full throttle shifts, no vibration. It felt like the driveshaft was bent or some bearing had gone. Took it to my mechanic and he diagnosed it as worn gearbox mountings. Sending my UDM in tomorrow to have the mountings changed. Hopefully that'll be the end of the issue! ;) [/QUOTE]
