Camaro newbie - question about slight shake/ratte - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi guys,

Just picked up a 2012 2LS as an upgrade from my 2006 Pontiac G6. I love the car so far. However, I've been feeling a little bit of vibration through the shifter (automatic) when coming to a stop (going less than 10mph).

Is this normal? All of my previous cars have had much smaller engines, so I'm not sure if its just a common thing in bigger engines or if something is wrong.

Thanks!

It's more than likely the AFM (automatic fuel management) kicking in. When I had an auto I would feel it time to time as well.

The v6 doesn't have an AFM. I too experience a slight vibration in the auto shifter from time to time. My guess is it's from the exhaust.

Thanks for the replies. I'm probably just being paranoid about my new baby

you guys should take it to the dealer and complaint about it. Its probably nothing major but just to be sure have them check it out. This is the first time I've heard of this.

I probably won't go out of the way to stop by the dealer unless it changes for the worse. I will mention it when I take it in for its first service though.
