Is the X running out of breath

HNY fellow forum members

Got some seat time during the holiday break.
There is a slight noticable vibration in idle. Can't explain, just short of it sounds like the engine is running rough in the cabin. AC comp on/off, no change.
Same noise whether the car is hot or cold.

Between road noise , etc, not noticable during driving.

She runs like a top though and pulls hard ;-)

I actually did my engine mounts back in late summer. The DS was semi bad. Did the pair'

Coming up at 138. One coil pack went dunzo, so ended up doing MM, bad coil, all sparks while I was getting greasy

X5...Out of breath?

Your SAV must have gained weight!

Sorry....couldn't help it!

Fuel filter/regulator needs replacing perhaps?
