Hi DS-fans,
I own a DS7 CRossback from 2019, 180 petrol motor.
I have two questions and like to know the thoughts of other owners.
-
when I start the engine when cold, the motor revs up to about 1500 rpm. This lasts for about 30 seconds, sometimes more, sometimes less. Then it settles back to about 900-1000. During this time of high rpm I feel quite a lot of “vibration”, in the steering wheel especially and this settles the moment the rmp slows down. Is this a normal situation when starting up?

I feel that at lower rpm’s, let’s say between 1000-1700, so when driving slowly, in the city, etc. there is vibration I feel in the steering wheel, and sometimes in my chair. It’s not like shaking in the way when your tires aren’t balanced well, but a quick, superficial vibration that I think must come from the engine. I also feel it when letting the engine “roll out” towards a red light, and then a sudden moments when the automatic gear shifts back and the rmp is round 1000-1700 and the pace slows down from let’s say 80 km/h to 50, 40, 30 I feel this. How much vibration is normal? And is this something I should have checked? Can it be that the engine is not fastened tight enough?
Hope to hear from you! Thanks in advance!
