I hope I'm not violating the protocol...part of this issue started when changing my timing belt. But since I can't get the vibration resolved, I thought I should start another post as it's a different issue. Previous post is here:

I still have a fairly significant vibration when starting, shutting off, and when in reverse going up a hill (my driveway is on a hill).

Today I loosened all three motor mount bolts in the picture (labeled A, B, and C). I put it in reverse and all was smooth. Tightened A. All was smooth. Tightened B. All was smooth. But when I go to tighten C - I can feel the vibration as I'm tightening it.

I know that my vibration is related to this mount and it's the only one we took off during the timing belt change. Just at a loss as to how to get this thing tightened down without the vibration. Suggestions?

Thanks so much!

It's a 2002 Honda Accord SE, 4 cyl.

 

Any ideas about this?

 

Well, when I did my timing belt. I had the balancer shaft slightly off it's mark which caused hella vibration to my str wheel when doing 60mph-70mph. Had that going for like 2-4 years of driving this thing.

Then just couple weeks ago when I re-did my timing marks, I had everything put back together as I know my balancer shaft is slightly off, and as I got back on the road, man, the vibration got worse. So right then, I knew that its the balancer shaft that is out of time that causes this majorly shakedown. Anyways, I went back to get it timed and everything and finally, got done and drove her on the road, and man, my car ran smooth as a brand new car. Haven't feel this since I got it back in '05 from my dad. Lol. All this time, I keep thinking that it's a bad axle or something.

Good Luck!
