Default Vibration when in Park or Drive

Hi all.

I had this checked out twice at my dealer and I'm not happy with their response. I have a 2007 A4 Quattro 2.0T Automatic. When I'm in park it's vibrate like a vibrating chair. when I'm in drive but idle the vibration is like in 2nd phase, vibrates a little harder. The motor is acting normal revving at under 1000rmps.

I understand a car is suppose to vibrate but this is like a vibrating chair. I suspect that they are unsure what to do and calling it normal car vibration. I'm going to bring it to another dealer when I get back from my business trip but just wanted to ask around.

Oh when I rev the car in park to above 1000rpms the vibration goes away and it's also not there when I'm driving. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

It sounds to me that your car may idle too low. What's the idle rpm?

Hey you know what! I think you might have it there. Yes...if the rmp would be higher the vibration stops. I'll let you know when I get back to town next monday.

But I know it's below 1000 probably 800-700rpms.

If it is...how would I increase the RPMS? to make it rev higher?
