    massive feedback in brake pedal

    Recently had my car taken in for it's 60k service at Toyota. Now I'm getting heavy vibrating feedback when I'm at a stop and stepping on the brake pedal... HEAVY vibrations. I'm pretty sure it's unrelated to the 60k service, seeing as they only do fluid flushes, inspections, etc. Now the only way I can get rid of the vibrating through the pedal is by shifting into Neutral when at a stop. I can still hear the vibrations in the engine bay but when in Neutral, the gear isn't pulling at the brake of course. My car idles steady but it does sound like a vibrating quality in the engine noise. Any thoughts? A random thought of might was a def/old rear engine mount?

    Dunno...

    Anyway thanks,

    Matthew

    hmm, I hope they didn't mess something up in the transmission bands.

    Does it vibrate with it in neutral and not pressing the pedal? could be a vacuum leak, although that seems odd

    Dammit....I was gonna say that.

    Do you have any feedback in the steering wheel as well when not in neutral?

    When you shift from reverse into a gear, do you feel the engine jerk?

    I had the EXACT same symptoms in my 94, and it ended up being engine mounts.

    hmmm i think i might have that prob too just that my vibrations are not that severe. How easy is it to change the motor mounts by yourself? or is this one that the dealership should do.
