kirks5oh Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 have you figured out the vibration at idle issue?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Lee Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Looks more and more tempting with the new price. ^^^ Along with that, have you worked on any of the other listed fixes, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linn1647545492 Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Not to speak for Sam but he has been really busy and has not had a chance to touch the car. The car is going to IPS this weekend to have the vibration issued fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEMAN1647545504 Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 I bet it's just the front damper. The little rubber piece to crack walks out of place throwing the balance off. It's common for a 10+ year old 5.0L to have this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's common for a 10+ year old 5.0L to have this. Linn is correct. I have been super busy. Looks like I am gonna have a day off tomorrow and gonna take the car to IPS to get it on a lift and take a look at it. I am hoping it is what Iceman is saying though from the sound of the motor it sounds like it is missing or something. Maybe the timing jumped alil and its off. I gonna check that as well. But like I have told many, it has great oil pressure, no vacuum loss and oil and coolant look clean. So I am thinking it is something very minor. Plus I wanted to add that I can toss in a extra short block if needed with the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk about your setup or the issue, but if you are using the stock 2 piece driveshaft, and getting vibration, make sure the ds was put back together properly. from bmw, the 2 pieces can be lined up by aligning the 2 white markings on each piece. they come balanced this way, and if not lined up it would create a vibration.
