95 Camry Shaky

[nitinek]

I have a 1995 Toyota camry XLE 111,000 miles on it.
the car is shaky/shimmy when the engine is idle (car in P position).
What could be bad in the car?
Air filters?
Spark plugs?
Fuel Filters?
Or anything else.....?

Check your blinker fluid...



Seriously, it could be a few things. Does it sound like its running rough or anything, or is it just a lot of vibration? Could be anything as simple as a tune up to something like motor mounts. Also, please list in your post what type of engine you have (4 or 6 cylinders). The 4 cylinder engines are notorius for having a bit of vibration at idle, normally only in drive though.

Please, I suggest you search and see what others have done in similar situations to yours. There are usually 1-2 new TN'ers every week it seems asking this very question.

Its a l4 engine, and it runs very smooth, but it is sometimes shaky when on park, usually very silent though. the shakyness is mostly on D gear stopped at a traffic light or something.

A little bit of vibration in drive, at idle, for the generation 3 5SFE 2.2 liter engine is normal. I am the original owner of a 94 Camry with the 2.2 liter 5SFE engine and I can tell you that my car has done this since new. So did all the other new 94 5SFE engines I had the dealer show me.

my 5SFE isnt like that when i first bought it from the second owner, mine still vibrates at idle and mechanic said it was two of my motor mounts, spark plugs could be another reason but mine were fine and i also added a bottle of fuel injection cleaner but it didnt help
