Shaking BMW

Our 520i BMW is doing the strangest thing - when idling the whole car being to shake, gentle at first but the longer it idles the greater the shake, it get the whole car shimmering.Rev up a bit and it stops.Anyone know what it could be, have checked all engine bolts - could the revs be set too low!

Air flow meter (AFM) is dirty or a vacum leak, normally 'round inlet manifold somewhere.

In which case - rev it enough and the thing will fly to bits in the engine bay!
