My car is a toyota caldina 1500cc automatic transmission engine. My engine vibrates so much that i can see the vibrations on the body of the car. This only happens when on drive or reverse. I have checked the mountings and i have also changed the gear box automatic transmission oil, yet the problem persists.

SOURCE: Noise and Vibration

There is a hidden motor mount on the passenger side of the engine that will cuase that kind of noise. It sits about right in the center of the engine on the right side. It is a time intensive job for inexperienced mechanics or do it your selfers.

It sounds like maybe the torque converter might not be fully seated into the trans, try taking it out and re install and turn the converter clockwise then counterclockwise while keeping pressure on the front of the conv. until you feel three little clicks or thuds. When it is fully seated you should barely be able to get your fingers between the the bell housing and the converter. while you have the converter out check the front pump seal again for damage if it looks chewed replace it put some trans fluid on the hub that goes into trans, the shiney part then slide it in. Hope that helps also when installing the trans make sure you tighten the bellhousing bolts first then do the torque converter bolts, that way you won't accidently unseat the conv. You have to turn the flywheel to get to all the bolts make sure everything is tight and good luck.

check the coil. you can switch them around to see if the code changes to the cly that has the coil from the #1 cly.thats the fastest way to check the coil.
