The car has a random vibration noise at idle only. While the event is happening there is no change in rpm's. Car is running at normal temp. The noise seems to go away as soon as I give the car some gas. Any thought or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks so much! -Tony Houston, TX tgregg75@yahoo.com Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Dec 27, 2007, 12:20 PM Post #2 of 5 (2577 views) Re: 1997 Saab 900 random vibration noise at idle Sign In Here's a maybe: Bet it's some funky resonance in the exhaust system. Just grab the tail pipe with something so you don't get burned and it may quit for the moment right in front of you. If that silly trick works you can find the spot with the system cold and engine off with a rubber hammer most of the time T Guest Anonymous Poster Dec 27, 2007, 2:45 PM Post #3 of 5 (2575 views) Re: 1997 Saab 900 random vibration noise at idle Sign In The tail pipe does have a hole in it. Could that have something to do with it? Guest Anonymous Poster Dec 27, 2007, 2:47 PM Post #4 of 5 (2574 views) Re: 1997 Saab 900 random vibration noise at idle Sign In The muffler I mean. Somewhere it has a hole in it.
