    if it still vibrates even with the car stationary and your revving the engine i'd be looking at the engine mounts.

    year engine mounts arent broke but badly perished.u think that would do it.checked both transmission and engine they not losse.it feels the same as a bad balance at 80km but at stationary and revin it.......thanks for the advise..any more would be great.
