I have a Fabia HTP. Starting yesterday, once I start the car, the engine shakes violently even at idle as well as moving, making it unusable. Has anyone faced this issue? Any idea on what could be wrong? |

Making it unusable? What is the rpm reading at that point? How does it behave when warmed up? Very likely a sensor issue.
The car needs to visit a doc. _________________ Robin |

RPM reading is normal - around 1000 rpm. Overall the car vibrates even after warming up(after the blue light is off). |

May be the bolt fastening to engine and body have become loose , This can be adjusted , I have seen mechanics adjusting vibrations in Octavia Engine while starting to reduce vibrations _________________ Rgds

I have the OBD port connector with me. Along with the android app - Torque, it can be used for looking at the fault codes, engine parameters etc. There is one "pending fault" P0303 which according to some sites means cylinder/injector 3 has some problem. This can be due to many reasons including spark plugs, sensors etc. I think I have to take it to the dealer. |
