I know this is a lot of work, but you could take your tranny out and put the automatic flywheel back on and put the bell housing from the t5 on and put the starter on. Then see if she vibrates. I have never put an automatic flywheel on with manual tranny bellhousing, I am assuming this will work ok. The only other way is to send your flywheel off to have it checked out. Since you are in Iceland, this may be more trouble than it seems to me. BTW, does the vibration intensify or dull throughout the rpm range or does it stay the same?

The AOD flexplate is bigger in diameter than the T-5 flywheel so thart won't work, allso I've sold the AOD.
And yes, it would be less expencive to buy another new flywheel than sending the old one to the US for a check out.
The vibration intencifies to 2000 rpm and stays the same from that throughtout. At idle I feel no vibration.
