   hi i had a post about this the other day since then ive had the injectors and coil pack changed. the car shakes bad when engine is cold on 1100 revs plus when it passes them revs when warm and stood still. ive asked mechanics had it in the garage twice and still doin it cost me 140 quid so far not happy. i cleaned the coolant temp sensor and map sensor today had new plugs, fuel filter. has anyone ever had this problem before? if so id like to know how you solved it. cheers

   Your car shouldn`t be idling on 1100k rev`s the revs should be 950-1000,try cleaning the idle control valve mate.

   doesn't bother me tbh mate,
   
   yeah if i'm at lights i get a big shak though the car like, but soon as i give any revs it goes, & it makes a diff going around corners as the cars alot more stable and no roll or wobble, so yeah i'm happy with it and it doesn't bother me

   it doesnt idle on 1100k revs just when choke is out or first thing when cold thats when shakes. thats the annoyin thing it idles fine on 1000ish soon as warm. but when i give it a quick rev stood still as thre revs are droping past 1100 revs it shakes.

   A faulty lambda sensor can cause this as they have a heating element in them which breaks down & affects the car when it`s cold.
