    Vibration at Idle

    Hi, I have a 2007 9-3 TiD Convertible, When the car is stationary their is a vibration the comes through to the drivers seat, when I put in to gear and drive off you can still feel the vibration which feels like a mis-fire, once the revs are up the car runs very smooth. Any ideas

    Thanks

    Steve

    My first instinct is that it would be a bad motor mount, but that seems unlikely on a 5-year-old car.

    I have paid to have a diagnostic check done on the car, no codes came up but they did say that injector 3 is not perfect, They suggested having all the injectors checked (£17.50 + VAT) each and if injector 3 is faulty £181 for a re-con. I have been told to put through some Forte Diesel Treatment & engine flush as it looks very like a mechanical fault.
