Hi all,
I'm looking to buy this MINI 3 cylinder. The inspector sent the attached video of the engine. He noted it vibrates. I've had other 3 cylinder MINI's and know they have the counter balance crankshaft and vibrate some and gurgle, which i love..but I've never really seen my previous engines on with the hood open. I tried finding similar videos on YouTube and some other B38s in BMWs seem vibrate the same way. Wanted to get your feedback on this one before I ask the dealer to take a look at it. Thanks!

Video can be seen in the Google Drive link below.

There is vibration and it's normal, but do check the engine mounts to make sure they are not bad.

 

Thank you, Nobody!
