You may have a pulley out of balance. ie harmonic balancer, steering pump, alternator. try increasing idle, set it at 850-900.

Vibrations during idling

which engine.??? never post lacking engine ,here is why.
1.3 L G13B I4
1.5 L G15A I4
1.6 L G16B I4
1.8 L J18A I4
1.8 L BP-ZE I4
1.9 L XUD9 diesel I4

Ill answer in the generic and for GAS engines. only.
that is illegal RPM, the ECU regulates it to 800 all the time
that means the ECU can not regulate the RPM now, for many reasons.
and sure it vibrates too low, that is normal for all 4cylinders to do that.
no bad engine mounts never lower RPM to 600, ever.
they dont control idle speed at all.
the #1 reason for most cars to idle too low are:
1: EGR leaks, (clean it)
2: ISC stuck closed (electric idle speed acututor dirty) clean it.
3: gross misfiring , caused by bad spark or bad fuel mix.
4: low compression on 1 or more cylinders (real low) Do compression test at WOT. throttle.

04 acura ti 3.2 litre engine vibration from idle to 1500 rpm

Wow thats a bunch of miles for only 9 yrs.
I would want to know if it is something related to the engine or transmission, or the wheels and suspension.
Does it happen in all gears, and at any road speed ? Can you rev up the engine and make the vibration, or does the car have to be moving ?

02 chevy trailblazer Vibration

oh,, we'll need some more information to be able to help, The thing is you didnt specify what vibrates for example when you start and you have vibrations while idiling, while in drive and the engine kicks back rough when changing gears more than likely its and engine mount thats bad. if its vibrating while idling its the fuel rpm ration (idling screw that needs adjusted or the MAP or air sensor if its fuel injected).. If its vibrating while the ac is turned on, check the ac step-up solenoid (the switch that increases the idling speed to match the ac's needed power.) we'll love to help or point you in the right direction but we'll need some more information. Describe whats happening for us , because we cant be there in person to actually experience it our selves. If you have a vid of the engine while vibrating etc all of that will be beneficial.

Pontiac g3 steering wheel viabrates

This is a rough idle, what is causing it is a big open question, you will need a tech to evaluate the problem. It could be just worn out engine mounts or a slow idle issue or many other things.

My 2001 Escort, 70k runs great but a definate vibration at the steering wheel. I notice it more when cold andwhen it warms up it is not as bad but still noticable vibration at the steering wheel. ...

That mechanic wasn't lying. I currently own three of them and I know a lot of people that own them and they all have a rough idle. The engines are internally balanced and they don't have dampeners, so you get the engine vibration transferred to the car and that is what you are feeling.

Vibration through the car Transmission-motor Linkage?

Check to make sure both headlights are tight,,,when it rattles at idle go feel the headlight and hold it and see if the noise and vibration goes away,sometimes the headlight has too much clearance and causes a massive vibration,,if thats not it try...loosening all the motor mounts and rock the car back and forth and them retighten them,it reseetles the mounts and sometimes fixes the issue,,also check the lower engine and trans mounts for wear.
