I love this car, but I cannot see why this car keeps idling roughly. I bought the car last year with almost 35k miles on and it's currently at 50900 miles.

Some technicians told me that after replacing the spark plugs and cleaning the intake throttle body, the vibration would go away. I did that, and it was good for a couple of hours, then started vibrating again.

I've put some gas additives as well but that doesn't fix it. The engine mounts are good, so I don't know what else could be causing that vibration. It's annoying because I've had other V6 engine cars with higher mileage and they've been good.

It idles just like a 4 cylinder engine with over 100,000 miles, in my opinion. Some have said that if I drive the car in Eco mode, it would make the engine idle rougher, but I've tried normal and sport mode and same issue.
