Aerosmith 2nd Gear June 7, 2013 Share June 7, 2013 my Opel combo 2007 1.3 Auto when idling has vibrations. when i accelerate abover 2k rpm, the vibrations is very serious and the worst is the loud grinding noise. but once i reach desired speeds and releases the trottle, the vibrations and sound subsides. is this a clutch or engine mounting problem? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic June 7, 2013 Share June 7, 2013 If idling also have vibration, it is the engine mounting problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aud_Dyn Neutral Newbie June 7, 2013 Share June 7, 2013 Might want to have the gearbox's torque convertor looked at. Could be engine mounting problem, but the "grinding" noise suggests metal to metal contact hence my suspicion of the torque convertor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renotrafic Neutral Newbie June 7, 2013 Share June 7, 2013 (edited) turbo up lorry? Van still have power? Edited June 7, 2013 by Renotrafic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosmith 2nd Gear June 7, 2013 Author Share June 7, 2013 thanks for the advice, i also suspected there is both a clutch/torque converter problem and a mounting problem. but when i brought down to a mechanic, they say it seems like a turbo problem. but they also noted no loss of power. van can still hit 130km/h but a lot of grinding noise during acceleration, after hitting constant speed, no more grinding noise. is turbo, torque converter and engine mounting expensive for opel combo 1.3 auto? anyone knows a workshop with good and cheap service?
