Concerned about vibrations. Need help

Name is AJ...


Im having vibrations occuring recently, symptoms started after I brought my car home from the dealer 2 days ago. After doing Transmission service and Differential service. The following next day (yesterday), I've noticed that when I turn my steering wheel fully to the left or to the right and pressed on the gas the door panels would vibrate a bit rough (unusual). But when I start driving and make a straight turn it goes away. Only when I make a full U-turn my door panels would rattle a bit rough, (rough ride). I took my 8 back to the dealer, yesterday... to ask about teh issue. Took the mechanic for a ride to show him the issue. He took a look under the car and said he found nothing out of the ordinary.

But my question is, why is the vibrations still there? it wasn't vibrating like that before I took my 8 to the dealer. Any suggestions anyone? Has this happened to you?

Could be a bad engine mount. They are the most common vibration causers with the AT.

You need to change your motor mounts. Anyway, mine only shakes (not too bad) only when the car is in idle. Trying to replace mine whenever i get a chance and saving up money for it.
