MY CAR HAS A NOTICEABLE VIBRATION IN THE ENGINE WHEN IDLING DOWN, BUT A TREMENDOUS VIBRATION WHEN IN REVERSE AND WHEN THE A/C IS ON. IT ALSO HAS A VIBRATION WHEN IT IS DOWN SHIFTING TO SECOND GEAR. I HAVE HAD ALL OF MY MOTOR MOUNTS REPLACED AS RECOMMENDED BY THE ACURA DEALER. I HAVE HAD MY CAR CHECKED NUMEROUS TIMES, TO BE TOLD BY THE TECHNICIANS THAT THEY HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHY THE CAR IS STILL VIBRATING. IF YOU OFFER AND EXPLANATION OR ADVICE AS TO HOW TO HANDLE THIS, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT HAS EXISTED UNRESOLVED FOR THE LAST PAST TWO YEARS. THANK YOU.
