Default Vibrating pedal on 2008 s60 2.5t fwd

After my trip to California I noticed a slight vibration on my gas pedal when accelerating. It’s been going on for about an month now, I noticed it gets worse as the car gets warmer. It’s pretty slight, nothing violent but does annoy me. Any recommendations?

Do you still have the original front (of engine) mount? And the left side of engine, (front of car) mount is common to sag/leak/tear and transfer vibration.

Default Why would that cause vibration on pedal?

Yes I do still have original motor mounts. When I coast there’s very little to no vibration, it’s only when I get on the gas. Almost feels like I have like 100 micro misfires in a span of one pull from a stop light. I was thinking maybe bent or worn cv axles ?

The right axle when the inner cv joint wears can/will cause a vibration when accelerating at certain speeds - not noticeable when at a steady speed. Your axles are not bent.

Check the mount on the front of the engine - (right side of car) They sag and transfer vibration to the subframe. Easy Diy, after you get the tire off and support the engine.

I was not suggesting replacement of any part that is not verified to be bad. I was suggesting diagnosing the problem first - for the front mount - take it off and see if the sagging center part is rubbing the subframe. If so replace it. If not - spend your money on something that might actually fix something, or for food, clothing, shelter and retirement.
