Vibration everywhere.
I have an 11 year old EX coupe and when the engine is on, the dash, steering wheel, and entire cabin vibrates. What is the cause of this? I know the car is a tin can, but I'm sure it was once quite and smooth when the original owner picked it up at the dealer. Is it loose bolts? Broken engine mounts or engine mount inserts? Or is it wear and tear and I just gotta deal with it?

Re: Vibration everywhere. (MiX)
Would a broken engine mount be that bad at idle? I had broken engine mounts before and it's nowhere near this shakey at idle.

Could just be a different one or broken worse.

It is an old engine, almost 240k miles. If it's the engine, I want to know why it makes the car shake - because it is connected to engine mounts and mounts are connected to the tin can, etc...
