Sorry, While sitting idle is when I feel the vibration....Its terrible but just noticeable. I 've had motor mounts done not to long ago, so I doubt thats what it is. I haven't had the sparks change since I had the car, which has been about a 1 1/2 yrs soon to be 2yrs, it has 73k on it, so I'm thinking thats what it may be.

Not certain at what RPM it happens, RPM has not changed not that I'm aware of 
It seems as if once the car starts to warm up...maybe 5 minutes or so after start up, the vibration goes away, Do you think I should be concerned??? Just never notice the vibration before.

You are barking up the right tree with the plugs- 2000 car, with what ever miles, should have had all its maintenance done by now- plugs/air/fuel filters. Injector cleaning would note be out of line. Have to make sure the basics are right first, before throwing other stuff at it.
If you still had a problem, it would be fairly easy to see with a SDS hooked to it cold, but I would bet it will be handled with the above maintenance items.

Thanks for the reply MBTech21,
Question=How would I go about getting injectors cleaned? I have had the air filter replaced, but not the fuel filter, I guess I'd better have that done soon!
Also, this has nothing to do with my origenal problem....But my steering wheel seems to be a bit off centered (almost not noticeable, only to me!) Do you know what may have caused this, and if its a costly repair?
