Q: Shaking off the engine.
My car has recently started shaking when I am stopped at a red light or stop sign or even parked. About a month ago I had my spark plugs changed because it was shaking badly before this time. It's not as worse as before but it gives me some concerns. I just want to know the problem.
My car has 135000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
