Default Vibrations through the gas pedal?

Whats with the vibrations through the gas pedal ?
I have 2 A4 f-bodys 01 (24k miles) and 00 (55K miles) and get vibrations through the gas pedal all the time, even in neutral. Engine mounts ?

I never noticed any vibrations in mine. Since your post yesterday, I paid special attention to it this morning and didn't feel any vibrations in the pedal. Maybe the newer ones to this but I've never been in one. Do you have a rough idle?

Do you drive with sandals or barefoot? I've never noticed such a thing, but I hate sandals and never go barefoot.

hey man i hear ya, i have the same thing. Mine is mainly from acceleration and decel when i can feel it the most. I thought it might have something to do with my rear end after i got my 373s put in but the guy said gears dont make vibrations. i think its definatly drive train related meaning not the tires even though there connected. If it was a weight id seem like it would shake the steering wheel not the pedal. i just changed my u joints and that wasnt it and the drive shaft hasnt lost ne weights so im lost but i do have a vibration through my boots at that.

driveshaft, or the balance of your convertor might be off.

Is it only thru the gas pedal? Not the brake or clutch? Is the vibration there when the car is not moving? Is it about the same when accelerating, deccelerating, idle?

A little more clarification on the situation surrounding the symptom would help.
