Engine noise in vs v8 at idle

[pusslux]

Hi guys, iv just recently notice that at idle the engine rocks alot and sometimes has a rattle or knock, its dissapeares as soon as i apply some revs. Im wondering what idle rpm its meant to have? Mine looks like it sits at 400rpm. Any ideas???

mate i'd have a look at engine mounts they might be a bit worn
when you apply a few revs it probably will take the rock out of it if the mounts are shot

sitting a 400 rpm at idle sounds a bit low ,
do a diagnostic check see if any codes are thrown up like tps or iac
might not hurt to check timing as well

I agree also
