Question A 'Lil Shakin' Goin' On!

Does anybody feel a little shaking when you just start the car in the morning (or whenever its cold)? I'm not a mechanical buff, maybe its the way its suppose to be.
I didn't experience that in my previous car, so it's new to me. Is it because the engine is more powerful?
Somebody calm me down. I think I pay to much attention to little things.

Shaking as in vibrations?

Shaking where?

I sometimes feel vibrations in my steering wheel, very mild and just about noticeable. I’ve got to think this is normal though. With 260 horsed there is bound to be some feedback.

I get it first thing on a cool morning. Seems like the tires are a bit square. Feels like the car is on a wash board but it is very slight. I thought it was the road but I travel the same road to work every day. It has only happened on the cool mornings, temperature just above freezing. At the end of the day when I drive home, no vibration. It happens at about 40 mph. Not worried about it for now.

It feels more like changing of RPMs. The tachometer stays at one level. My friend has the same thing in his new Accord.
Check yours out, let me know.

It's probably a blown valve or something.

I get those all the time.

Just put some stop leak in there.
