Default Experiencing slight vibration when stopped

when I'm at a light and waiting, I feel a slight vibration coming from the body through the seat, NOT the steering wheel...Has anyone else felt this???

Artart! Yes! Finally someone else notices this. I just posted this very question on another thread. Yes I do have the same problem as you. But from what responses I get on the forums, I get the feelin this is not the norm and there should be no vibration. With the slight vibration I can also here a slight fluttering as well from the vibration inside the car.

I going to take mine into the dealer to have them look at it. I was going to try to find another to drive to see if it is just mine or what.

Have you been to the dealer yet? If so what did they say?

yes mine does the same thing, feels like the engine is sputtering slightly when at idle, it's very mild but can get on your nerves. think i'll got to the dealer and get them to take a look. CRUISE ON!

While some would call this and un-documented bonus...saving them quarters at a cheap hotel (insert your choice of vibration puns), I would be concerned about this too. All you who feel the vibe, are cars an Auto or Manual trany?
