Hello all, I'm new to this forum!
Need help, my 2000 5.9l Durango engine is shaking quite bad during start up/idling. Even when driver's door is open, you can see it, like how a muscle car rumbles.
also as I accelerate, you can hear and feel it.
What I've done to it so far,
:replaced spark plugs, wires,cap,rotor and ignition coil, and all 8 injectors.

Thanks in advance

 

How many miles on it? What spark plugs did you install? Getting any codes?? (check engine lite on?)

Welcome to DF!

 

Hey You, thanks for reply.
It has about 196,000 km on it (don't know what that translates to miles) with Denso platiun plugs.
No engine light/codes ever came on.

 

Put some standard copper plugs in there. These engines are notorious for not liking the rare-earth fellers..... Reset the pcm after the change, see how it runs.

 

Ok, I will try that.
How can I reset the pcm, or do I have to take it to the dealer? (Which I want to avoid at all cost)

 

Just disconnect the battery for half an hour or so. Cheap and easy.

 

Yes that is, always thought you had to take it to the dealer for something like that.

 

Check engine light on? Any codes?

 

no light, no codes.
But I'm gonna try standard copper plugs as hey you suggested

 

Hello HeyYou, so I changed out spark plugs and reset pcm. Unfortunately no change. Did a compression test and that is all good. Seems like maybe it's not the engine?
when start up, the engine and car shakes, and when I step on gas at idle or accelerating, you can hear the car rumbling. Like something is unbalance.
What arr your thoughts.
thanks
