I have a 2000 Buick Century with a 3100 in it. Sometimes when we back out of the driveway, the engine shakes a bit and rumbles (like we modified the exhuaast)...but once we put it into drive the engine calms down and the rumble that was there also stops. This is very intermittent. The car has 60,000+ miles on it. Other times we'll be driving and we'll notice the engine sounds rough (no shaking though). Anyone have any ideas on what might be the problem or what needs to be done to have this problem fixed?? Thanks, krfan1 |

Is there a pattern to the fault? For instance: time from start ambient temperature engine load fuel level etc. Any codes set? Have the auto parts store do a diagnostic scan and see if there are any fault codes stored in memory. Visually check obvious things like plugs, plug wires, all engine management connectors. |
