Default SC300 Accelerator Pedal Vibrates?

Got a 99 sc300 recently, working through some kinks.

One I can't put my finger on is that the accelerator pedal seems to vibrate when I push it down. Usually in lower gears, not as noticeable on the freeway.

Any ideas? I had my mechanic check out the transmission and engine mounts, those were fine.

I have the same problem too, I changed the engine/tranny mounts as well, and it is not the problem. I think it has something to do with the throttle cable. If you figured it out, let us know!

could **COULD** be heat shields for exhaust vibrating, which can sometimes be felt under the pedal at low speeds
