Vibrating Gas Pedal

Ok so this is my problem, when I am driving and I press the gas pedal slightly the car has a low growling sound and the gas pedal vibrates a little. Is this the Max just screaming to press it more or is something messed up?

Do you have vibration problems moving or standing still? Also, you need to determine is you have a vibration problem or a rough idle one? There is a difference...

The vibration happens when you are moving and press the gas just a little. It's not idle because it doesn't matter what speed your going when you give it a little gas the car growls and the pedal vibrates.

Got me, have you gotton up under the peddles and inspected them for loose hardware, brackets or bolts? Other than that, it's a first for me...

Good luck though, post what you do find...
