Idle Vibration
Quote from LeonMul on July 29, 2021, 8:44 pmHi all,
Just wondering has anyone else experienced excessive vibration at idle?
2012 Swift Sport with 75k miles.
I've tried cleaning the air intake valve & the MAF sensor but no luck. Spark plugs were changed around 12 months ago (6k miles) for Denso Iridium.
Car idles around 550-600rpm. I have heard Suzuki didn't want to introduce stop start so they just dropped the idle speed, although I am not sure how true this is.
I have a HKS CAI fitted, although the vibration was present before this was fitted and has since gotten worse.
Thanks for any help

Quote from Moyz on July 30, 2021, 5:55 pmSounds like a knackered engine mount. More than likely the rear one that connects the gearbox to the front subframe/chassis. Pop the bonnet and have someone rev the engine and watch for excessive movement ?

Quote from LeonMul on August 5, 2021, 12:30 pmCheers for the reply mate, I forgot to mention I asked a mechanic a while back about the mounts and he mentioned they were fine. Had another check, doesnt seem to be excessive play. When I knock the Air con on and the revs idle around ~700 RPM the vibration decreases, but is still present.
I also never mentioned it's not a consistant vibration. Comes and goes every few seconds.
Thanks

I have also put redex cleaner through the fuel.The car is a 2015 with 26k miles

Quote from Austin Peacock on November 2, 2023, 7:34 pmI have the same issue after driving and once at temp.
Vibration noise every few seconds, the only thing i can pin point is that the engine is vibrating directly on the bonnet

Quote from Moyz on November 2, 2023, 8:32 pmIt might be that your cars previous owners have fitted a 'solid' rear engine mount? It is a popular upgrage (I have one on mine) and this does transmit more vibration through the car, especially at idle... just a though.
