If there is no change, release the brake pedal and see what it does. If it goes away with foot off brake, there is a vacuum problem somewhere in the power booster system. Not very likely, but a possibility. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds woitw User May 26, 2008, 6:07 PM Post #3 of 3 (1851 views) Re: car shakes Sign In car mellows out a bit when i put it in neutral. it also shakes a little in park but hard shake when there is a load on motor   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
