Symptom
Rough Idle or Shaking? We Find the Cause
Is your car shaking at idle, or running rough when you stop at a light? A rough idle usually points to a misfire, but many things cause that. We test to confirm which cylinder and why before recommending parts, and if a check engine light is on we read that too. Serving Lynchburg VA and Forest.

Answers
Common questions
- Should I just replace all the spark plugs and coils?
- That is an expensive guess. We identify the misfiring cylinder and the reason, then replace only what is actually at fault.
