    Guys, I need your expert advice on this. Whether the car is in first gear or in neutral, at around 1700 to 2000 Rpm, I feel some engine vibration. First I thought it was the gear box, but then, I realized I could duplicate the same vibration while the car is in neutral. As I said, I only feel the vibration within that rmp range, anything over or under is fine. It feels as if one of the pullys is not ballanced and it translates the vibration into the cabin. BTW, I Have only had the car for two weeks, could this be normal????

    Motor mounts may need to be replaced. Maserati updated/upgraded the mounts in a campaign a few years back. Heat shields are also added to help protect the mounts. If they haven't already been replaced once then it should be covered by Maserati.

    Thank you guys sooooo much. I also think it is the motor mounts since the car has 47,000 miles and probably has the original motor mounts.
