For some reason my car turns on just fine but shortly thereafter it shakes a lot and seems to want to die. Once driven for a while it seems to be fine.

Hi ttheo,

Seems the idling system is not functioning as it should be and I believe a clean up of the throttle body and Idle Air Control valve should help.

Does the Check Engine Lamp shows?
