When your engine shakes, pulsates, or vibrates, it’s a sign that the "rhythm" of the engine is off or that the components meant to hold it steady have failed. An engine should run with a smooth, consistent hum; if it begins to "stutter" or feel like it’s struggling, the cause is usually a breakdown in the air, fuel, or spark delivery, or a physical failure of the rubber mounts that isolate the engine from the car's frame. In South Africa, where dusty roads can clog filters and high temperatures can bake rubber mounts and ignition wires, these "jitters" are common but should never be ignored.
A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the shaky engine, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.
Given the range of the severity of potential issues, from faulty spark plugs to weak motor mounts, it’s important to have a mechanic provide a thorough inspection as soon as possible.
