i have been liking my 22 SE with the 2.0 motor so far, with 380 miles on it. But i noticed a weird vibration when idling or in park. It is not loud or shaky just enough to make me feel sick espc with the AC on. Thinking of taking it to the dealer after the holidays though i feel a bit picky about it. Has anyone else felt this? I had an Highlander an Odyssey and other sedans plus an Eclipse Cross (which is pretty bad for sound) and none of them did this i even feel in the back seat.
 
This actually sounds pretty annoying, but some vibration at idle is normal for a turbo 4-cylinder, but if it's strong enough to make you feel sick, it's worth mentioning to the dealer. It could be engine mounts, the A/C compressor load, or something else affecting idle smoothness. Just take it to the dealer, its your comfort afterall
 
I completely agree, some vibrations are normal, but if it's really bad, it's a good idea to get it checked out. Have you noticed if it gets worse when the A/C turns on or when you change gears? That might help figure out if it's the mounts or another problem.

380 miles for a 3 year old car? You haven't been driving it at all. Honestly I would take it to the dealer, at least ot have them see what's what. Slight vibrations are fine, but they don't make you sick, so there's definitely something to look at
