    Vibration at low revs

    Since its been getting colder, I've noticed more vibration at low rpm under load. I have a steep driveway, so it's not hard to load the engine close to 1k rpm.

    I'm thinking it could be engine mounts, but were to look and what I'm looking for is beyond me...

    No other issues, not a problem at higher revs.

    Any help would be great

    Thought I'd try a little electronic maintenance;
    - realigned the throttle body
    - backed off the timing from 4.5 to 3 degrees using Lemmiwinks

    Didn't really feel rough, not that it always does. Torque curve feels much later with the different timing, i might take it back to stock APR and stock timing, see how it goes.

    Not sure if I'm getting the same problem as you, however for me the car shudders at low speed tight turns i.e. first and second gear. Low to moderate acceleration.
