Seems like 50% of the time I shut off the car, the car vibrates rougher than any vehicle I've ever driven. Actually now that I think about it, no vehicle I've driven vibrated or shuddered when I shut it down.
This happen to anyone else?

 

Mine shakes on shutdown also. Just part of the engine characteristic.

 

nah,I think the kid means it shakes a bit more than it regularly should..Mine does that lately also and Im curious to why..if anyone knows a simple cure or what to look at,holla.lol

 

Thats weird, its like the S2k just drained the main vein....

 

oh NO!!! this is a precursor to the dreaded engine mount crack!!!

just kidding , this is normal.

 

What do you mean by vibrate? I get a shudder every once and a while in my '03

 

It like shakes when I turn the key to kill the engine...like after you take a long satisfying piss.

 

I think thats normal, it only happens sometimes leading me to believe its just dependant on the position of rotation the engine is in when power is cut. I've noticed other FWD cars doing this too. My friends 4-cyl Conquest does it much more severely than our cars.

 

My engine kinda clunks when I start it and also shakes when I shut it off.....43k miles on her, bone stock '01.

 

I've seen the "shake" too. I think it's just the way it is... this is on an 05 with 13k.
