Hi
I have a 2004 C5 hdi estate (79k) which has started to vibrate at start up and at junctions etc.
When started this morning the car could be felt shuddering at tickover, when I raised the revs to 1000rpm it seamed to smooth out. When I looked under the bonnet the engine appeared to be moving back and forth? This juddering can be felt sometimes at junctions but not all the time?
Any ideas out there, not sure if it's fuel/injector system related and thats making the engine run rough and vibrate, or if its more mechanical ie engine mounts etc?
C5 engine vibrating ?

Most likely a dirty injector which will affect leak back and fuel rail pressure which results in a rough tickover.
Put some injector cleaner in the system and it'll probably improve.
