2007 sl550 vibration question
Hello all! I am purchasing a 2007 sl550 from a dealership. It has 46k miles. It looks good, except when in drive at 0 mph the door/car is vibrating. When we asked the dealer, he said it was normal as v8 engines normally vibrate. Is this normal? IF not, what is the problem? Thanks!

Thank you for the replays! So, is replacing the engine/transmission mount a big problem?
