    Default Idle Thud

    Ok when my VR idles I feel a slight thud every 5 seconds or so but when idling with engine cold it doesn't make this thud. Its only slight and only happens during idle, any help would be great.

    You can hear it and feel it coming from the engine.

    Yeah it's fine under heavy acceleration and high speeds it only does it while idling its weird might give the ignitions leads a check might replace the spark plugs aswell.
