Well my mother said that her D2 is making a vibration sound in the engine compartment and the check engine light is on too. I test drove it today this evening and I could feel what she was talking about. It feels like it's under the drivers seat it feels like a bump vibration it does it like every 2-3 seconds the engine doesn't rev high or anything also it is leaking a little engine oil. Need help!!!!!

you might want to check for the codes with the reader...sounds like dealer visit or a shop with the code reader.

It should be an OBD-II computer system, so you can take it to the local Autozone or Advance Auto Parts stores, and they can read your code for ya for free. How bad does it leak? Check the level of the oil, last thing you want is to starve the engine of oil, and cause future problems.

As for the vibration, check out the drivetrain, like the U-Joints, see if they have any end play.

I had the same problem w/ my old '00 D2...ended up having to replace the head gasket.
