    Default Intermittent vibrations on throttle

    Hi again guys.
    In the last couple of days ,my caravan started to vibrate on load,between 80 and 110km/h when becomes more strong to feel in the pedals and on the steering wheel.
    The gearbox mount is dead, will be replaced ,but i need a opinion ,if only the mount worn could do such vibrations.
    Its intermittent.sometimes its There,sometimes doesnt.if i pass the 120km mark, becomes less strong but still feel a vibration on the floor of the car.could be a bad CV joint?
    I need ideas!!
    Thanks !!!have a good week!

    in my experience when the gearbox mount is gone you usually feel it under load only, that said it could be a drive axle causing the vibrations also and if t is that it would be because of the mount not keeping the gearbox in place.... the longest drive shaft is the one that feels carries the vibrations to the steeringwheel.

    it could be but you would hear and feel that when the car is not under load and you press the clutch pedal.

    Dmf was changed 1 month ago.it was when we saw the mount loosing oil.
    So,maybe its just the mount and nothing else? Never tought that only the mount could lead to such vibrations and unconfort like this
