Thanks for all everybody's input.
Not to make light of your situation, but if it does it every time, that's a good thing. But, it's actually a bad thing, too. Hope you get it fixed in any event.

Roger that. Totally understand your point. We have one of the best dealerships in Florida....Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City.

Default 2014 C7 A/T vibration 2000 rpm neutral & driving

Steering wheel (especially) and whole car vibrates. It feels like some type of harmonic(s) that is being transferred throughout the whole car. While grasping the steering wheel, the vibrations run up my arms and feels really weird!

It happens only at 2,000 rpms. Has any one else noticed this?
My C7 A/T has same symptom.

I had the exact same problem. Vibration only at 2000 rpm driving or sitting in park. Tech and GM said they had never run into that particular problem before. First time in they had it 2 weeks said it was a couple bolts not torqued properly in the torque tube. After a week the vibration came back only now at idle the car windows shake with the door open and I can feel in it the seat of my pants and from 1800-2000 rpm, then at 2800 and up. Took it back in, this time they had it for 3 weeks and came back...no trouble found. Said they'd keep a ticket open for 4 months. That was in October just before I put it away for the winter. Now the 4 months is up and I know when I get the car out the problem will still be there. My plan now (once spring gets here) is to just drive it until something breaks. BTW I have a 2014 A6 with 6900 miles on it.

Dear CAR#30,
I believe there is a common problem with our C7s. I was at the Dealership for 3 hours today in Bremerton Wa. I have 31k miles. I started feeling the vibration about a 100 miles ago. First noticed it at 2000 rpm in steering wheel. Now I feel it between 1200 and 2200 rpm. And I feel it more than in the steering wheel. Thanks to you and others for letting me know it's not just me. I'm retired but worked in Chevy dealerships for 20 years in service and parts departments. Someone at Chevrolet has to know what's going on. I will post when I find the answer.
