Hi, I've always had this vibration when shutting the car down. I never thought about asking if that is normal for s2000s. Does everyone else have this? Is it a symptom of bad engine mounts (I didn't see any fluid etc)?

06 with ~50k miles.

Thanks

 

My 2006 (68K miles) does not do this. Can you post a video of yours?

Mounts are not filled with fluid.<its BS>
A HC engine will not shut down smooth..

 

Mine does this, it's subtle, but I do notice it

 

I paid attention this morning but I detected nothing unusual for two shutdowns. 89K miles, 2009. Original mounts. No drama at all.

 

I mine has 26,000 miles on it and I notice the subtle engine vibration or shake when I shut it off. I will try to record it next time I have the car out for a drive.

 

Sure was a lot of liquid in and around mine when it tore in half, as was the one on the other side that half tore when the first one let go. So much it was all over everything around it. Every pic or video I have seen of a torn one also has the same brown oily stuff inside it and all around it after it tears.

 

Just saying what Billman said..

 

I know, I've heard that. But it is one thing I do not necessarily agree is true. One of mine had been torn a while so it had mostly dried up. just some oily residue inside and signs of it leaking everywhere around it. My car very very rarely had been driven in rain for the 2 years prior to that. And like I said, it was oily.

My other one had just torn. Oily mess on it, around it and inside it. DIY guys how to on motor mounts shows them oily and leaking. Others I have seen replaced were oily inside and had signs of leaking all around them and on them. So that stuff is coming from somewhere. I actually, beyond the comment you are referring to cannot find info on them anywhere that says anything but them being fluid filled.

 

Thanks for the video. Never thought of the shift knob swaying.
