You need to describe in what situation it shakes.
Otherwise, take it to the dealer if you just bought it.

come on. you really expect anyone to be able to answer your question with such vague information?

But I'll try to help. It's probably something to do with the car. maybe one of the parts on it.

In my experience and research on forums it seems to be normal. Usually morning starts yeah? Starts up, maybe 3-4 secs later rpm drops just a little and car shakes once or twice. If you had an exhaust you'll hear it make a pop or after fire sound right before the shake.

if the 86 is rockin' don't bother knockin'

OP, we need more deets.

RichardsFRS · 10-02-2016, 08:49 PM

Its shaking in disgust its an auto? Joking aside. Your car shouldn't shake.

auto86 · 10-02-2016, 10:24 PM

I have an AT '16 FR-S also. Can't say I know about shaking after I start my car. Do you mean as soon as you turn the key over, or after it drops to idle? If it doesn't continue I wouldn't see a reason to worry. Just fill it with premium gas when it gets low, maybe the fuel isn't up to grade? You'll have to be more specific with how severe the shaking is and if you can feel it or maybe your windows just kinda shake.

Hello @Kana and welcome to FR-S ownership and to ye ol forum .....

So,

* did you buy the car new .. ??

* if not new, does it have any mods .. ??

* does that morning "shake" happen before or after you put it into gear .. ??

Come back ......

I have a 2016 AT as well and I get a little shake while the car warms up. I had the same thing on my Crosstrek too. I'm assuming it's just the engine warming up.

In the morning, if you shake your 86 more than 3 times, you played with it.

Puts a smile on my face, so I'll say it's ok.

HachiRo · 10-02-2016, 11:43 PM

When exactly does it shake?
Does the needle for the RPM dip too far as if the car is about to stall?

IMHO take the car back to the dealer if it concerns you.

After cold start the car revs down. I've never experienced any shaking.

Well now, @Kana ..... is your car still shaking .. ??
