Mercedes C200 Cdi W203
W203 Diesel engine vibrations/movement

I just purchased few weeks ago a diesel Mercedes C200 Cdi and noticed that the engine when idling tends to vibrate quite a lot. For example visually apparent that the engine block seems to shiver left to right by centimetres.

When sitting inside the car the vibration is not noticeable, similar to other cars. Maybe a little tingle from the steering but nothing major.

Is this normal for older diesels? Am i just paranoid?
