Hey,
My car is shaking violently when I\'m starting the car (if the engine is already warm).
edit: It shakes as the car is starting. The shaking stops once the car is done starting, and begins idling.


Its not as noticable if the engine is cold.
My car is 06 sedan GT atx.

search only came up with results regarding rough shifts and rough idles.

any help will be nice.
thanks

yeah, of course =p.
But there is a big difference in the strength of of the shaking between
a cold engine and a warm engine.

it seems to be better if I let leave the keys in the \"on\" position, let the beeps going away, then start the car.

Thats wierd. The beeps shouldnt have anything to do with the shaking ... how long you leave the key in the on position before starting the engine


Wait till the weather warms up abit, or if worse comes to worse, just take it to the dealership.

Didnt you just get your car not too long ago Fuman
?

yeah turning 1.5 months old soon.

my friend told me that if I leave the keys in the on position for a little bit, it\'ll let the fuel injectors purge (I\'ve no clue what it means).

I let the key stay in the \"on\" position for about 5-6 seconds before starting the car.
it seems to help. I don\'t know if the weather is playing a role.

I\'m taking it to avante tomorrow, want to get it fixed asap.

damn it, went to avante this morning and the car was starting fine.
After a chat with the service manager, he said car finish with the beeps
before starting the car. If the problem comes still shows up then go back.

Something you may want to try - let your current gas tank go close to empty and try a different BRAND or gas ( a different gas station). A polluted gas may cause this problem too.
