hey guys, i've had my Ap2 for nearly 3 weeks. The car runs fine and starts fine, but i was just wondering if it is normal when shutting off the engine, its kinda rough and shakes the entire car? all the other cars i've driven when shutting off doesnt really vibrabte or shake. is this normal or something i should point out to the dealer?

THANKS

 

It is normal because of the harder than your typical sedan engine mounts.

 

My 00" does the same thing, too. For a while I thought my engine mounts were going bad but the mechanic said it was still good. I guess I don't have to worry anymore then.

thanks for the help

 

I thought the same thing when I first got my '05. As everyone stated, it's normal. What I do to minimize the shaking is press in my clutch when I shut the car off...seems to help.

 

I have herd of it being the high compression that our cars have make the internal components come to a quick halt. Its normal from what i understand.
