Hello, I have a 2000 Galant 4 cylinder, I had the timing belt, seals and water pump replaced and then with the car in neutral or in drive with the brake on, the motor vibrates horribly, its so bad that the dash board where the vin number is cracked. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you.

 

Hello mate, did the vibration happen straight after the timing belt job or was it there before? And what's the mileage?

 

When I first bought the car it didn't vibrate, it started after I replaced the timing belt and motor seals at 60,000 miles. I also changed the timing belt, seals and water pump at 120,000. It has 134,000 miles presently.

 

I've not had the pleasure of doing a timing belt on a Mits yet but the tensioner set up is something i'm looking forward to viewing. Seems a bit complicated for the job it does. Could this be an issue? If i was in your place, i'd be checking out the condition of the mounts and dampener - see if it's starting to separate. Just a thought............
