At what speed does this very bad vibration occur? while stopped?

Can you describe the very bad vibration in more detail?

Yes it’s vibrating while stoped not while driving but only when it’s in D and you hold the brakes the vibration it’s coming definitely from back of the car it’s shakes all the back seats i will take it back to dealer and hope they will sort it.

This really sounds like an engine vibration that is resonating through the car.

While stopped, there isn't really anything in the rear that can cause a vibration.

Perhaps a muffler or exhaust is rubbing on
something with engine vibrations



Does it go away at different RPMs?
If you hold the brake and tap the gas, does it change significantly?

Worst diagnosis ever. Diff fluid causing vibrations while stopped. Lol

I wonder if there is a broken or loose differential mounting bolt(s).

I would expect that to make a click or a clunk...

Not a vibration while stopped, loaded up at high cold idle.

take it back and let us know how it goes please

yes, most likely an exhaust shield making contact somewhere, but what makes me think it's driveshaft or coupling related is that he states it only happens while the car is in gear. Granted, being in gear will mean the engine is under load, thus making more vibrations, so that could solidify either case.

Either way, should be under warranty still, but not for long on a 2019.

I'm 99% sure it's the torque converter. I had similar problems with my car and that was the source.
Does it happen once the engine is warmed up? Let's say, about 10-15 min after a cold start?

 

[Protopopesc89]

No
