Bad engine judder when turned off.
Moderators: Doone, westonwarrior
Mine has always given a good judder when switched off - only done 40k - might be worth checking fixings of hoses and electrical connectors/wiring etc. around the engine area as these can hit the inside of the engine cover/underbody area when the engine gives a good shake making it sound worse!

The Judder and things
My 2.5 td Manual Bongo suffers from this judder. it seems to give a momentary severe judder when it starts for about half a second and then when switching of seems to overun for about a second but I believe this is the engine just coming to a natural standstill. I have just had the Bongo MOTd and i did ask the garage to check for worn engine mounts as i plan to travel into France/Spain and Portugal so I want things right- the answer "the mounts may be slightly worn but there is nothing to worry about" oh and it has done this since i bought it in October or 5000 miles ago and everything still seems fine.
I say, Do You Bongo?....... RATHER!
Mine never used to judder or I never noticed it judder. One day I noticed a big judder that seemed to come from the rear. I went back and found the rear door was not closed properly! I closed the door and it went away.
About 6 months ago I got rear ended and needed a new door now I notice a judder 90% of the time.
Might just be me though.
