Idle vibration

The HP Fuel Pump on our 08 RRS TDV6 had to be replaced after spewing smoke and diesel all over the road.

After getting the car back, I have noticed a subtle yet noticeable increase in idle vibration when trasmission is left in D when stopped. The vibration can be felt through the seats, steering wheel and strongest from the center console between the front seats. Shifting into N seems to lessen the vibrations, and I have started doing this at most light stops.

Has anyone come across such a problem? The dealer had taken a look and said they can't fault the car.

UB my first RRS didn't do it at all. My second one did it a little. I am not sure whether its rpm, tranny or mount related. I would go to the dealer (warranty?) and get them to try to minimise it as its quite annoying.

BKHK what years are your two RRSs?

Oh yeah this is annoying the hell out of me at every traffic stop The dealer said to bring it back for another test drive with their mechanic, I'm hoping to arm myself with some info before taking it in...

Thanks for replying Bobby. I'll suggest it to the dealer and see what they say. Sigh

Thanks,
