FAQ #177

	Engine vibration then electrical failures
	If you find that your getting vibration when pulling away, at tick over or during acceleration then it may be a failing/failed engine mounting which requires replacement. If left, it could cause excessive movement on the earth strap and partial failure which can set the Can Bus into a bit of a tizz giving multiple ECU errors and fault warnings as the Can Bus is susceptible to fairly minor voltage changes. If you get multiple warning lights then check the earth strap between the engine and car body.
