With the tranny service, was it a drain and refill or was it a full flush?
Also, check your engine mounts, see if they are gone, are they cracked, bits of rubber missing?

yeah thanks,,
i had the mech to look at it and he thinks the mounts are fine, then they told me it could be injectors but i dont know about that!!!
would the injectrs make the car shake if their bloc??
and it was just a trans filled up no flush,,is it big diferent?:)

It could be mounts, but I reckon they'd affect the car all the time, not just when sitting stationary at the lights.

Sounds more like something in the engine, rather than the car.

Could be a slight miss; blocked injector might cause this. What condition is the car in - serviced regularly? KM's? How're the plugs, leads, dizzie? TB dirty?

A flush pretty much is as it sounds, they flush the whole tranny, they pretty much force fluid through the tranny while the engine is running and going through the gears getting 99% of the sludge that builds up over time. So, at the end all your left with is nice clean fluid.
It's recommended that it's done every 40k or so.

Hi,,

, i try to up the idle from screw but it only worked for few days then when back to the vibrations, how can i rid off that problem if anyknows please???

I think that the above is your problem....initially the idle was too low which causes the engine to run rough...you then attempted to raise the idle speed via the 'screw' which is not the correct way!!.
I don't have access to the manual right now to advise the correct idle revs (from memory 700rpm?), but the idle speed is controlled by the ISC (idle speed control) - this sets the initial idle in P or N and when you select D or R it raises the revs to compensate for the load from the transmission.. If nobody else chimes in I'll see what I can dig up tomorrow.

Did you end up sorting out this problem? Mine is doing the same thing, I have a KH verada.
