Ok so when im sitting at a redlight my car vibrates like crazy. it doesn't do it in park or in neutral. it only happens in drive or reverse. I have a AT was wondering if anyone knows what could be causing my problems

so the motor mounts were fine. I even got my dad to look at them for me while it was it drive and i reved it up. do you think I could do something with the fuel system or a vaccum hose? it only happens when i put it in drive or reverse when the brakes are on. it runs great in park
