   Hey guys.
   
   My Mk2 VTS has started giving me more troubles recently.
   
   What would you suggest looking at when it doesn't idle smooth and the car vibrates excessivley above 2k rpm.
   
   Side note: Recently changed the plugs due to missing. One was dripping with oil. (either: piston rings/valve seals) could this be affecting the above
   
   Thanks,
   Ryan

   You could try cleaning the throttle body and associated tubes and intake piping to clear any clogs

   Could possibly be an engine mount if the car vibrates like you say but i'm just guessing.
