Rough idle..

Hey guys,

I am experianced rough idle, but you cant feel it sitting down,when you just start the car, if you touch the door (if its open), its like shaking.. Car had TB cleaned/Plugs done/1 mount replaced and other mechanic says are fine.. any ideas?

Is this only happening when you first start the car? When everything is cold? Does it clear up after a minute or so?

If so, then its normal. Car runs rich to warm up the cats.

I want to say both, but i will double check today and make sure. Its a little annoying when doors shake.. only noticable if you touch them and feel the vibration.

Yeah, this drove me nuts trying to figure out what was wrong till I found out it's normal when cold.
