Need some advice, I have a 2.0tdci estate. When accelerating moderately or heavily the car shakes violently, doesn’t shake if pressing the clutch and rolling from accelerating, well start again once depressed and accelerating again. The steering wheel doesn’t shake, just the whole car. Under light acceleration it doesn’t shake at all. Any suggestions please?
