I'm getting a very slight slight, almost imperceptible, vibration when pulling away in my 2.3 lpt '97 automatic. It's low frequency (about 20 hertz) and is just as drive is being taken up and the car starts to move. Only last a couple of seconds if that. Feels like it's coming from the front, engine area. I'm worried it fortells auto box probs but could be an engine mount type thing perhaps? Anyone know what I'm on about or had similar problem?
( I've just remembered I've got a sticky front caliper, could it be this?, hope so)

Before I'd read to the bit where you confessed about the caliper I was thinking just that. Get that sorted before worrying about the vibration.

Yeah,
I think you're right CD.
Just typing the problem in and thinking about it brought the caliper to mind. Internet car counselling, I like it.!
