How much of a vibration at idle is acceptable?

[annoyed]

I have a 1.5 mild hybrid that vibrates a little at idle, and can be felt through the steering wheel and seats. Is this normal? Does yours vibrate too?

It's nothing 'violent' that can be seen by the naked eye, but can be felt. My friend has another MQB evo model and had to change engine mounts after a year into ownership, which got me thinking if mine is also failing but I just did not notice.

I have 2012 1.6tdi Leon and there's no vibration I can notice, certainly not through the seats !

Yes I have felt the same vibration through the steering wheel, accelerator pedal and dash. Same thing in another Formentor I viewed before I bought this one.
Never felt this in any other car I have driven in the past.
Seems to be more pronounced at the beginning of a journey when the engine is warming up. Should I get this checked out?
Just find it hard to believe this is normal as other people have been told.

I have the same on mine, i think its normal, many other cars do the same, it only with cold engine, after warming up it disapears.
