      Unhappy Vibrating Aveo

      So recently I've noticed that Whenever I turn on the AC/Heat my car vibrates a little. This also happens when I brake while reversing ans well as when I'm stopped at a light.

      Does anyone else have this problem? Any fixes to this?

      I'm guessing this is an automatic.

      Sounds to me like engine RPM dropping when adding a load (AC) or while stopped, in gear. (Probably normal, unless your idle speed is way out of spec.)

      Try this: next time it's vibrating when you're stopped in Drive or Reverse, shift to neutral. Does the vibration go away?

      Depends on the type of plugs installed....I was also experiencing stronger than normal vibrations in park/idle and was using the NGK iridium plugs. I decided to switch to a new set of NGK copper plugs (as original) and the vibration seems to have normalized to the same amount of vibration when I bought the car. For best results stick with the plugs that are recommended for your vehicle....check it out in your owners manual under the section Capacities and Specifications.

      Use spark from GM , cause its have 2 lid. Another spark just 1 lid and not as strong the GM spark.
