My old calais did the same thing, but the side mirrors were fine - they didn't vibrate. So keep an eye out of those instead!

If your centre mirror tips, maybe you can pull it apart, and put something sticky in the ball joint so it is a bit stiffer - it will still shake, but wont tip sideways!

yeah same issue mate, my side mirrors dont vibrate, i should look at something to stop the mirror tipping, i thought glue it straight, but that may cause more problems hehe

eh? what's that ..... ? (says the deaf man :ninja: )

hehehe *uses sign language*

Turn the music down.

The guys 200 metres down the road don't want to be able to sing your song.

If your stereo is that loud, it is also illegal!

When I turn mine up for shits and giggles (Very occasional) it only vibrates the inside mirror, it doesn't twist it around, and I know how solid my bass is, if you're twisting the mirror, turn it down!

Basically, it's not the car shaking thats doing it, it's the air movement. I can feel my sub moving all of the air in my car when it's up loud. But hey, my stereo is for me, not the guy driving infront/behind. SO TURN IT DOWN. I don't want to hear your music!

ok i had this same problem to in my 32, take the mirrors, i think 3 bolts, after there off look underneith your mirror and u should see a small cover, take it off with a flat screw driver.

once its off u will see a couple of screws tighten up as much as u can, as mine were loose as a whore.

thanks mate, i might have to take off the mirror and hopefully tighten it up as much as i can and stop my mirror moving

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
