Replied by Scimike on topic Gearstick vibration - how much is normal?
As the Dr had said it vibrates a little I had to look again at mine as I could not recall this, and Yes, it vibrates a little!
I stand by my original comment in that I had never noticed, it so small and the "feel" is a much reduced damped version of engine vibration. It fades into insignificance compared to the general rumble and sway of a Jimny, I guess that's why it never registered with me.
It's not any worse or better than any other vehicle I have owned.
Here's a video of my Jimmy at about 900 rpm, engine still warming up. 2009 M13a VVT. Desperately trying trying to avoid all the double entendre that this subject evokes
sorry about the sound, my engine does not normally sound like this, a few less birds / tractors for a start.
