Re: Rotax 582 vibrations
I have experienced similar conditions with both 582 gray and blue heads on my model 3. Very rough idle below 3,000 rpm, then everything smoothes out. (When I purchased the airplane from the original builder, the altimeter needed to be replaced because it had shaken itself to death from too low an idle setting). Carbs are sync'd and jetting is correct for smooth operation and correct temps in flight. ROTAX mechanic on my field played with the idle adjustments on the carbs and things are smoother, but still kind of rough under 2,800. Personally, I have never known either of my 582s to idle particularly well at lower RPMs. I have only used B boxes with each engine. Depending on the time on the engine, you might want to have somebody look at the gears and shims as excessive vibration over time will definitely loosten thngs up. I would encourage you that you can smooth it out, but it is a process not an event.

Re: Rotax 582 vibrations
I put my engine mounts ...same
I changed the gearbox B for a C model ...same
And one day a guy coming from nowhere said "hey did you see...your muffler is touching your aircraft structure.
I fix it differently with the springs and now all it's ok
So now i've got a B model gearbox to sell if anyone interested PM.
So i'll finally going to fly with that KF...
