Steering Wheel Vibration when parked?

Im sure Im not alone when it comes to the vibrating steering wheel when jus sitting in the driveway. Im not sure, but does it have to do with motor mounts or something? I know that some car power is lost to vibrations, which should go to the tires. So does anyone know the cause for this minor problem?

Re: Steering Wheel Vibration when parked?

new factory motor mounts and a proper tune up including idle adjustment should make you much happier with life

Re: Steering Wheel Vibration when parked?

basically ..

shaking at a stop is a function of two things:
- motor mounts
- vibrations from the motor

or .. the exception .. something weird like something touching something that it isnt supposed to be.. which is coming back to #2.. vibrations being transmitted from the motor..
