I've *just* started getting this problem myself. Started about a month ago. When in drive and at idle, sometimes the car will have some pretty insane vibrations. Stops doing it if I put it in neutral though. Bad motor mounts then??? Might have to suggest it to the dealership next time I visit.

If it happens when you are driving it's the CAT.
