Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2012 Toyota Corolla and I have about 123K on the engine and when I bought the car i though it would been the motor mounts and i would get them checked.  I just had that done they all 4 are OK not ripper or torn or cracked.  I don't know what that vibration might be coming from is there any ideas what it could be???

WOW, THERE CAN BE SO MANY CAUSES WHEN IT COMES TO VIBRATION, I WOULD TAKE THIS STEP BY STEP, SO WE KNOW IT DRIVE SMOOTH WHEN THE CAR IS ROLLING, CORRECT ? SO TIRES AND BRAKES MAY BE BE OF THE QUESTION. I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU GIVE THE THROTTLE BODY A REALLY GOOD CLEANING WITH A GOOD THROTTLE BODY CLEANER AND CHANGE THE AIR FILTER AS WELL. WHILE YOU ARE THERE CHANGE THE SPARK PLUGS AND MAF SENSOR IF IT'S STILL HAPPENING THE YOU MAY BE GETTING INTERMITTENT SPARK AT THE COIL. I WOULD GO AHEAD AND CHANGE THAT NEXT.
