Howdy, thanks all for the more ideas Smile

In regards to the tune etc, its possible, but the fact it can even happen on deceleration with no load at all makes me think it's not that. The engine has heaps of power and apart from the vibration goes well, like no misses or hesitation etc. But I suppose you can't rule anything out completely can you.

The 3T is timing chain yeah.. I tried having a play with the external tensioner just loosing it off a touch and tightening it up a little bit but this had no effect. But the bottom tensioner is internal and works on oil pressure so its possible this is causing it?

I do have heavy duty valve springs in there. Could a vibration be valve related? Or like clearance between cam and valve?

With the headgasket, i've been suspecting a problem with it as seems to be getting pressure in the radiator. So you mentioned a headgasket can cause vibration?!?

I have electric thermo fan so not the clutch fan.

Tonight I tried putting a shitty little brace between the throttle body and head, just to test it and see if any difference. it wasn't a very substancial brace just some 4 or 5mm thick metal bolted to 1 bolt on the throttle and 1 bolt on the head.

Anyway, that took away a lot of the vibration from the throttle body, but still the plenum is just as bad.

I'm wondering if more bracing would help, or is this just a bandaid fix for another problem?

Cheers
Joel
