Vibration at idle that is worse with ac on. What does it mean?
If your car is vibrating at idle, there are several potential causes. One possibility is that the engine mounts have failed. Engine mounts are designed to minimize vibration, so if they are worn out or broken, they can cause increased vibration. Another possibility is that the tires are out of balance. This can cause a vibration that gets worse when the air conditioning is turned on because the AC compressor puts additional strain on the engine. Finally, it's possible that the crankshaft is damaged. If the crankshaft is bent or otherwise damaged, it can cause increased vibration, especially at higher RPMs.
