Idle problem on 03 LX
 
First of all, I'm new and just wanted to thank you for this forum! Ok now on to my issue:

Just bought the car, it has 33,000 miles only. The car runs fine and everything but when I am at a stop light or any stop for that matter when in D, the car vibrates rough. This only happens in D and none of the other gears. I know it's not normal and was wondering if anyone else had this issue. Thanks!

could be a low idle, bad motor mount or a few other things, when was the last time any sort of tune-up was done on it?

I would chk the mounts and the idle speed as Sir suggested also ,,has car been in any accident ?? did you pull a car fax?? frt end collision ??

also ,, Sir those babies do not need a tune up till 90k according to Honda ehm, ehm .. ,, but he might want to chk the air filter .

I think I need a air filter change....we're talking about the cabin air filter right?

Back on topic....when was the car last serviced? Is it an auto or manual? Perhaps it's just a mere suspension (alignment issue), brakes (pads/rotors), oil (oil filter, etc.) or coolant issue.

Yeah, that's normal though. The AC unit is hard at work!;)

It's an auto. I am going to replace the air filter, fuel filter, and swap out the oil for synthetic. Also, I was going to change the plugs but I am way too early for that. I will also check the motor mounts and the idle. Thanks for all the tips and I'll update you guys once I figure out the issue. Thanks.
