I have a 2002 Nissan Sentra. Everytime I turn it on it shakes for a few minutes and is then fine. I took it to get fixed and they said it was an engine problem and fixed the gasket valve cover/4 coils and few other engine related things ($1300). However my check engine light has come back on again and the car shakes a lot when I turn it on. The mechanics said they ran every test and cannot seem to find the problem. What can be wrong with it as it shakes when I start my car but is fine once I'm driving for a few minutes.
Thanks!

Hi there,

If the check light is or has been on there will be a set fault code in the ECU, a scan will read this code and it will be a pointer to where the problem is, get a scan done next.
