shaky at idle

[Igster]

Hi guys, I'm new to the forums so thought I'd get straight underway with my first post!! Just got my clio 182 cup and I've been looking around for a little while now at some of the problems that you have. My car seems to idle a little rough, nothing major to be fair, but at lights etc you can feel vibration in the footwell and the gearstick vibrates a lot too.

Should I be worried about this and get it in to Renault? Or is this a common thing with the 182?

Cheers guys and hello to you all!!

Nothing to worry about, they all idle like that.

Running on V-power can help to reduce it I find.

mine still does .............. not that bad but you can see the gearstick move

Yeah, reminds me of a diesel Transit van.

Cheers guys, didn't think it was a problem just wanted to make sure. Gearstick also vibrates when driving, so am I right in thinking this is the same thing?

Mine does a little when you hold the gearstick ..... but nothing too much , if your car is still under warranty ....take it in for a check up / piece of mind thing ?

Think I'll pop past Renault as its under warranty. Not sure its a problem but it'll do no harm to get it checked out.
