The solutions for the idle vibration of the Tayron are as follows: 1. Clean carbon deposits: Excessive carbon deposits inside the engine can cause the air-fuel mixture to become too rich. This fluctuating state of richness and leanness will lead to engine vibration, so it is necessary to clean the carbon deposits promptly. 2. Clean the throttle or air filter: A dirty air filter will prevent sufficient air from entering the engine cylinders, resulting in an imbalanced air-fuel mixture and insufficient engine power, leading to vibration. 3. Replace the spark plugs: Prolonged use of spark plugs can cause the spark plug gap to widen or excessive carbon buildup at the ignition point, both of which can lead to poor sparking or insufficient ignition energy, causing misfires and resulting in reduced power and engine vibration. 4. Stabilize fuel pressure: If the fuel pump's supply pressure is insufficient, it can also cause insufficient engine power and vibration. 5. Replace aging engine components promptly: If you open the hood and find that the engine is not vibrating or vibrating only slightly, then the issue is not with the engine but with the buffer components. A common cause is the engine mounts failing to provide cushioning due to aging. Identify the faulty part and replace it promptly.

My Tayron started experiencing idle vibration just in its second year of purchase, where I could even feel the steering wheel trembling while sitting in the driver's seat. This issue is mostly caused by engine carbon buildup, especially after driving 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers, as the throttle body and fuel injectors are most prone to carbon clogging. I suggest you first check the condition of the spark plugs. Once, my car was shaking badly, and it turned out to be caused by spark plug leakage. Also, make sure to use the correct engine oil type, as the wrong viscosity can affect engine operation. If you can't handle it yourself, find a reliable repair shop to perform a throttle body cleaning, and have them check the aging condition of the engine mounts and rubber pads. Rubber parts lose their cushioning effect over time.

As someone who has run an auto repair shop for eight years, I've seen no fewer than fifty cases of idling vibration in the Volkswagen Tayron. The most easily overlooked factor is fuel quality. Poor-quality gasoline can degrade the atomization effect of the fuel injectors, leading to incomplete combustion. You should first rule out this possibility by trying a reputable gas station. Next, check the working condition of the ignition coils. Just last week, a car had vibration issues because one of its ignition coils had poor contact, causing engine misfire. Also, make sure the air filter isn't too dirty, as insufficient air intake can also lead to vibration. The electronic throttle needs regular calibration—this car is quite sensitive to voltage fluctuations.

Don't rush to the dealership and waste money on idle vibration issues – you can troubleshoot it yourself. First, start the engine and turn on the AC. If the shaking worsens noticeably, it's likely an engine mount problem. Then, open the hood and listen for any hissing or puffing sounds, which could indicate a cracked intake pipe. After turning off the engine, pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and check if the oil level is normal. Last time my car shook, it was due to an aftermarket air filter that didn't fit properly, causing unstable airflow. Also, a quick reminder – this model's high-pressure fuel pump can cause vibrations if faulty, though it's less common.
