Why does your car wobble at slow 20km hr speed?

Why does your engine shake after you turn off the ignition?
The condition has many names, "run on", "piston glow", "dieseling"... basically, the carbon deposits in the engine are hot enough that once you turn off the engine the heat from the carbon deposits will continue to ignite the fuel, keeping the engine SORT of running.
That was one of the many reasons for going to EFI. In an EFI engine, once the key is turned off, the injectors STOP injecting fuel and the engine stops.
If your vehicle is EFI, you probably have a leaky injector.
If your vehicle has a carburetor, it's "run on", and you might get a little benefit from a tune-up and possibly a carburetor rebuild.

What causes severe vibrations at high speed?
Usually it's a wheel balance issue, but it can also be worn steering components, a bent wheel, a faulty tire or a bad CV joint.
At what speed? Where do you feel it, in steering wheel or seat? Any relationship to using the brakes? If you use a tire shop, they can figure it out for sure. More than likely tire balance or a bad tire or tire(s). Tell me more and I can help for sure.
What could cause your engine to shake when you shift to reverse on a automatic transmission?
It's difficult to get a feel for what you mean when you say your engine shakes. Do you mean a regular shake? If that's the case it might be a bad valve, sparkplug, plug wire or injector. If you mean that the engine moves quite a distance when you put it in reverse, but then comes back, it could be a motor mount. Please feel free to send an e-mail directly if you want to discuss the situation further.

Why won't a 1995 Saturn SL2 twin cam start even after replacing the battery?
If it doesn't crank, then it will be the starter, or ignition switch. It might have a bad starter
you also might have a bad alternator one of these 3 would be my first guess Also be sure to check the starter fuse located in the fuse box under the hood, probley near the battery, there will be a digram under the cover of the fuse box. If you pull the fuse and its black or brown in the middle then it burnt out. this s your cheapest fix. If it happens again, take it to a shop and have them look for a wire short.

Your car was shaking this morning when you started it?
That's most likely an engine misfire.
If so, misfires can be caused by quite a few different things:
If it's throttle body injected it's probably NOT a fuel problem but there's still a possibility.
* It COULD be electrical (spark) in which case it's possible that it's something like a coil pack, distributor cap, plug wire or sparkplug. * It COULD be a sticking or burned valve. Now you just have to find out which.
Only at low speeds, or worst at low speeds? Either way it's probably a bad front tire. Failing that, bad front wheel rim or front wheel rim not properly secured to the hub.
