1992 Suzuki Swift Repair Question
Mileage: 150,000 miles.
Swift vibrate on idle !!!
the problem is the vibrating on idle
i've changed the motor mounts and the transmission mount and still have the problem
some says that the 3 cyl engines vibrates more than th 4cyl engine
and its normal to feel this vibration on idle with the 3 cyl engine
is that true ??!!
do i realy have to feel this vibration on idle because of the 3 cyl engine nature !!!
Answer
i think they do idle less smooth but have you taken compression test to verify = cylinder pressure?
no i didnt yet , do you think it might be a cylinder pressure problem ???!!
cause some website sayes on the suzuki alto 2009 car review
that Inherent in three-cylinder engines are noticeable vibrations at idle - you soon become accustomed .
the point is i feel exactly like if i drive a four cyl car with
a damaged motor mount .... is that what they mean a bout (noticeable vibrations)
p.s i've just bought this car 1 month ago and i never try to drive the 3 cyl cars before thats why i am asking !!
You only need a minor tune problem for these little engines to cause a problem, so do the comp test and general tune, vacuum leaks as well can be an issue.
yes i would add because of the 3 cylinders ANY little thing out of harmony can exaggerate an already present vibration.
