Vel Satis Defective Engine Mount
Summary of the thread
A 2008 Renault Vel Satis is experiencing issues with a defective engine mount, leading to uneven idling and error logging. The problem is suspected to be related to a defective cable or plug connection. A similar issue was resolved by replacing a worn engine mount, which had caused a loose connection. The suggested solution is to have the mount checked and potentially replaced at a workshop.

Yeah, it’s most noticeable at lower RPMs when idling. When did you notice yours, and what was the fix?

Mine started gradually, same symptoms. Turned out to be a worn mount causing the connection to loosen. I'd recommend getting it checked at a workshop. Likely needs a mount replacement.

Thanks for the insight. Took it to the shop, you were spot on; faulty mount and connection. New mount and connection fixed it, total cost was 95€. Appreciate the help!

I had something similar on my Vel Satis. Does the vibration seem worse at certain RPMs?
