Vibrating/Shaking car in Gear while stop/idel/brake

[thSydney]

My 2.2L Automatic 99'Camry start Vibrating/Shaking since last month.

As soon as I put into gear from N/P to D/2/L or R, start vibrating/shaking.

but put it back to N or P very smooth and no vibrating or

when car start moving no vibrating.

So same as when I stop at traffic light feels Vibrating/Shaking, when car start moving vibrating go away.

I fixed exhaust bracket but vibrating still exist.

And as per oil leakage, mechanic changed TimingBelt, water pump, seals and rocker cover gasket, as well as put new Engine mounts. But vibrating still remains after spending over thousand dollars.

The mechanic said as per 13 years old car should be little vibrating, but I'm not agree as no vibrating at N/P. Before changing enging mounts, he said shaking cause by worn engine mounts. He then blame engine have sludge as he saw when changing rocker cover gasket.

:(

How do you guy think? Please advise.

I would of also said the engine mounts. Did the mechanic replace the mounts correctly!

What are the engine revs when the car is in Drive whilst stopped and also when in Neutral/Park?

[thSydney]

engine revs is round about 800 in N/P and slightly move up when in gear (900-1000).

I can see upper engine mount and front engine mount is changed, but I can't see easily lower engine mount, mechanic said changed, so hopefully changed.

Normally the revs would be higher when in N/P, and when put into gear the revs will drop a little. Maybe other will comment on that.

recently I check with my car revs,

N/P revs => 750

revs In all gear Gear => very first reach to 800 then drop to 750

after full engine flush by mechanic no more shaking/vibrating.

Wow I didn't understand fully as why engine flush sloved the shaking vibrating.

[Ozzcaddy]

Following the engine flush, just keep an eye out for any oil leaks. The flush removed any sludge that may have sealed possible leaks.

Thanks Mate.

Just over a year after flushing engine, I changed oil at last April (at
mechanic) and within four months I lost half of the engine oils.

Eventually I decided to change the rear main seal at new mechanic.

Now I'm $720 poorer, (new rear main seal and rocker cover gasket again). But
no burning smells and feels happy.

Hopefully, that will fix oil leaking.
