Default Fiesta WT vibration on accelerating

I have noticed that my Fiesta WT auto has a slight, but discernible, vibration when you accelerate. Take your foot off and it is fine but apply a little throttle and you can feel the vibration start. More noticeable in top gears for some reason. Anyone noticed this on other Fiestas?

Really happy with the auto in both cars. A bit different to the standard 4 speed auto we were used to but once you get used to the slightly different "feel" they are great. Very smooth.

Hi Fiestaman,

My WT is in the dealership as we speak, and has been since Tuesday waiting for a new clutch pack to be shipped from Melbourne, It started as a vibration and gradually got worse. I would get it checked out if i was you!

Aye, exactly the same thing happened to my auto a while ago as well.

Oil seal leak on the dry clutch plate.

Again needed a full clutch replacement. Started as a small vibration, then developed into a grinding sound.
