Well I have new mounts and filters on my car, I am sure I could use new injector nozzles, just can't afford them at the moment. I was reading posts about the rack damper bolt, I was cool an easy fix on my idling problem, well I don't have one. My car starts fine all the time, runs with no vibration on the street and freeway, its just when its idling its like a paint shaker. If I adjust the throttle control on the dash, it stops shaking, but I don't like my engine reving that high. Anyone have any ideas? or is there an adjust screw or bolt that I am missing?? car is a non turbo euro 300D.
Rough idling...

I would rather just replace the nozzles, they have over 150,000 miles on them, so its time and I would rather put new in and not have to worry about problems for at least another 150,000. I have done a purge, nope no air is getting in, car runs to smooth to be sucking in air, the injector pump is leaking oil from some unknown place. I am not sure if it is idling fast enough. I read this post 240D rough idle - Do I or don't I have rack damper bolt? - ShopForum about the type M pump, seems like the rough idle could be that the pump is out of calibration, and if you can live with the rough idle don't worry about it because to R&R the pump is $$$$
$200 on average to put it on a bench.
have the injectors checked. many places are reasonable. Don't replace the injectors.put nozzles in if you need to. I use goff diesel in SLC utah. here is a link to a guy with supposedly good reputation. Iwas thrilled by Goff. My 300 is rock smooth and quiet with pop and balance by goff.
