Starting a cold engine causes resonance throughout the body.

Hi, bros,
My car sounds different from yours.
When I start it, there is a significant resonance throughout the car.
When I drive it, it goes away.
This vibration is not a vibration of a specific part, but a resonance of the entire body.
When I step on the brake while waiting at a traffic light, the vibration reaches its peak.
This vibration is not a vibration of a specific part, but a resonance of the entire body.

Is this normal?

It’s normal especially when it’s new. Been discussed quite a lot regarding idling vibration. The root cause is the heavy duty engine mounts which will settle with mileage. It will vibrate all the heat shields in the engine behind the air box which can be adjusted to minimise. Adjust heat shield underneath the car. Also it may vibrate behind the dashboard area (but only some). Do a search on this forum (vibration at idle).

Hello, I had the same issue. Unfortunately my droning got worse and there was a rhythmical droning at 2000 rpm. Spoke with dealer but it’s a 12 hour drive away from me. Got to drive a dealership demo IG and it has the same vibration at idle and 2000 rpm but less than mine. I think it’s the engine mounts and the heat shields. Not sure how IG is going to fix this issue? As I said… mine just got worse with time! Seems like it’s a common issue. Driving 500km in it is murder!!! Good luck!
