We all seem to know and have a vibration at idle. I bought new and has done this since driving off the lot. Im at 73kand it seems to be more pronounced. Everytime i come to a stop i feel a steady vibration in the steering wheel.

Has anybody found or solved this? [/u]

Mine does this too. I just got it used with 30000 miles on it. It's an 08. I checked the motor mounts and the belt today and so far haven't found anything. I'm still looking thoygh. I did notice when I had the hood open that when the AC is engaged it does vibrate a little. Ill let you know if I find anything else out once I'm done looking.

Some are due to bad engine mounts and there was a TSB on the issue, some are corrected or made somewhat better by performing an idle air volume relearn...and some of them just are!

I have adjusted the idle speed a little bit using BullyDog tuner (just bumped it up some 75 rpm) and it feels much better.

I bought a 2012 Frontier a month ago and noticed the problem from the beginning. Had my dealer bump the idle 50rpm and its fine now.
