Anybody has this problem with their lancers...

I am new to this forum and i just bought a new lancer.
Do you feel your engine shake while you handle the steering wheel or while sitting.? Like a light shake... not too extreme. and one more thing.. wat are the guide lines before hitting 1000 miles.. is it not driving over 65?

i dunno its smooth shifting, i guess cause its new. it has a nice dark interior (oz and ls) and looks cool but gets really hot in the sun so you should get tint asap. i dunno its a fun car, but it could use some speed

You're probably being too paranoid. If it shakes bad, just take it in to the dealer... thats what warranties are for. For the first 1000-1500 miles just baby your engine. Don't go redlining it alot, and change your oil @ 1500-2000 miles. -peace-

i meant when you are warming up the car and you feel the car shakes slightly.. shouldnt your car feel like it never was turn on? but instead it sorta feel like vibrations on the steering wheel. is it normal

when the car is warming up, the rpm's are higher, because the engine is trying to warm up. So yes you will feel a slight vibration, and this is normal.
