Viration on idle on my old Ballade 160E
Hi, hope I'm at the right place.. 
I have a Honda Ballade 160E - think outside of South Africa it is called a 'Civic'. This is the DOHC 1600, 1993 model (dolphin shape). It has almost 230 000km on the clock. Good car - had some pains over the years (overheating/electronics etc.) but lately it's good. As the car gets older, of course more rattles are heard. Currently, as I drive slowly in peak traffic as the revs passes just over 1000 and goes to idling (+/-800) again, it goes through a vibration zone where the dash rattles. What can I do to fix this..thought to replace the mountings..which ones? I replace the bottom left front on the flywheel side - no improvement.
Thanks,
Eben
