Really strange and annoying vibration

Like lots of annoying vibrations, this is proving difficult to trace and so I'm hoping that someone with a Td5 Disco II might have experienced the same - and fixed it!

In first gear - and only first gear - whilst letting the clutch out and adding a dab of power to move away there is a loud low-frequency vibration that comes through the accelerator pedal. No vibration through the clutch pedal.

The clutch, DMF, etc., are brand new.

Its not affected by the angle of the steering.

There are no other vibrations at any other speeds, accelerating or decelerating.

It only does this when moving away from stationary in first gear.

The only way to avoid it is a few too many revs when moving away.

It is driving me mad (where's a 'pulling my hair out' smilie when you need one?)

Any ideas?!

Thanks
Hugh

Engine mounts..? Have you tried moving off in 2nd gear just to see if it does it then..?

I have now - and it does it in 2nd.. and 3rd.

I'd have gone with flywheel but you said all that's been done. Timing has just been out on one of mine and from moving off it was sluggish and a bit of vibration, but I'd say that was from the misfire it was causing. Once moving though it was fine, except for me feeling it was not just quite right..!
