Oga Alvin007, my own car vibrates when on idle in gear when AC is on, but in motion, whether AC is ON or not, it doesn't vibrate. I drive a 2005 Camry. So when in slight hold up, I have to put my car in Park or neutral or turn off AC completely. Could this be engine mounts too?
Bros...what kinda car is it? is your check engine light on? If ‘Yes’, please scan first. If ‘No’ and you’re sure the check engine illuminating light hasn’t been tampered with,....kindly, take a picture of your instrument cluster when on idle...some problems might be as little as having your idle on the low..
An alternative route: start your car, let someone engage it on either ‘Reverse’ or ‘Drive’...with the individual’s leg on the break(with the car static),..open the bonnet and check if the engine vibrates vigorously. If it’s not stuttering or misfiring, and it vibrates on idle, it definitely has to be the mounts..
I’m sorry for my long epistle.

Very informative. I experienced points 1 & 2 before I had the mounts replaced 3 months ago.

AutoJosh you should start a social group for car lovers.

Thanks for the nice idea.
