Default Slight vibrations in steering wheel

I sense slight engine vibrations in the steering wheel after a cold start when standing still in P or N gear. Around revs like 1200 but also between 2000 and 3000 revs.
If I start my 2018 T5 (Automatic transmission) I always feel a short slight judder in the car.

You should not feel anything from the engine in the car right?

Does anyone recognize anything as described above?

if you feel a vibration with the car in neutral/park, then you know the transmission/axles are not in play. That leaves a few things 1) the engine is running a bit rough when cold. could be normal or could be due to fuel trim etc. 2) could also be a motor mount or 3) the power steering pump or PS fluid... Does it go away once the car warms up?

It is very slight. But also when warm I feel slight vibrations in the steering wheel around 1200 revs.
Is it normal that you also feel a slight judder in the car when starting the engine?
