Harmonic balancer wobble at idle
Harmonic balancer wobble at idle At school today, I had the hood opened on my 99 WS6 showing a few of my buddies the motor. I noticed the harmonic balancer had a little shake to it. Once the motor gets above 800RPMs or so, it smooths out. Is this normal?
Are you sure its just not engine wobble....because as you increase the rpms, the more stable your engine becomes, with the lower idle, the more the engine will shake....make sure its not just engine wobble.
I doubt its coming lose, I just think you're getting scared because it looks like it shaking more then the enine. Because it sits out further then the engine, it will appear to be wobbling, but infact its just moving along with the engine. If you're not throwing any belts or you don't feel any weird vibrations in your shifter/stick, then its nothing to worry about, its just normal.
