Car vibrates when in drive mode

Additional information. It feels like I am loosing power as vibration happens when I use the hazard and open the headlights too in combination with the A/C.

Hi Jonathan and thanks for using 2CarPros.com. What you describe can be the result of a few things. First, when the aforementioned components are being used, there is a load on the engine that does not exist when they are off. The idle is controlled by the idle air control valve (IAC).

Here is a description of the IAC:

If you determine the IAC is bad, here are general directions for replacement:

Here are general conditions which can cause an engine vibrations:

I attached a picture of the idle specifications.

Next is the idle up solenoid. When the air conditioner is on, the IACV-FICD solenoid valve supplies additional air to adjust to the increased load. This could be an issue for your vehicle. I attached a picture if its location. Additionally, there is a flow chart for checking the idle up solenoid.

If the vehicle has been tuned, I am sure your mechanic has already checked for vacuum leaks. Just in case, here are directions for finding a vacuum leak. Ask your mechanic if this has already been done. If not, start with this first.

If that checks good, my next step is the idle up solenoid. Follow the chart I attached below to determine if it is functioning properly.

I hope you find this helpful. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask.

Take care,
Joe
