Heads up everyone!!
My car started shaking at idle and starting hard. The check engine light came on, and the car felt sluggish. I tought I got water in the gas tank some how, because it happened right after I washed it. Anyways, the dealer checked it out and said they couldn't find anything wrong except "two random missfire codes" on the computer. The check engine light went off, but it still didn't run 100%, and when the car sat for more than 2 or 3 hours, I had to crank and crank to start the engine. I brought it back to the dealer and they had it over night, and they fianlly saw what I was trying to tell them about the starting and idling. Long strory short, the fuel pump is hooped, and it doesn't hold pressure after sitting. SO if you are experiencing similar problems get your fuel pump checked out.
