Car Body Vibrates After Replacing Engine Seats Rubbers With Bushings by SortOut: 10:44pm On Oct 10, 2017
On noticing excessive jerks while switching from P to D and R, I called my mechanic and he checked one of the engine seats. He concluded that the engine seats be changed. He gave two options, buy new ones (expensive), or fix bushings to replace the bouncing rubbers.

I chose the bushings due to reduced cost compared to the new replacement part. Immediately after fixing, I started the car, the body vibrates excessively from inside, but the initial jerk while using the auto gear level is no longer noticeable.

The excessive body vibration is tiring, and doesn't give a smooth ride...so unappealing

Please help
