What is your question?
My car has a vibration when it's in drive with the brake on. It doesn't vibrate in neutral or reverse, but does slightly when warming up in park. It does seem to vibrate when I take a sharp left turn. I did have a rear-end collision in August, but didn't notice the vibration until I took it home from the body shop. So far I change two motor mounts and did a major tune-up, but that hasn't solved the problem. Any idea what's going on and if the vibration can lead to other problems? Thanks for the help and Merry Xmas, Happy New Year!

There are normally 3 or 4 mounts for the transmission/engine, so one of the others may be bad. You may have an exhaust system that is vibrating as the engine is in drive, this may have been caused by the accident.
I had the exact same issue with my 2002 SLK320. It was the muffler hanger bracket. I used a crescent wrench and bent the middle of the bracket about an 1/8 of an inch and it has been dead silent ever since. Shade tree mechanic? Maybe, but it worked.
