Here's the situation... I was sitting at a stop light in my 2k1 HX coming home from Ocean City, MD when a lady in an Outback decided not to stop and pushed me in to two other cars. A month and $5,400 later I got the car back yesterday. Everything is fine except for when I am idling at 750 RPMs the car shakes like hell.... I dont want to take it back to the repair shop because it is two hours from my house... anyone have a diagnosis or remedy?? Much appreciated[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Just a wild guess, but you might want to check the motor mounts. Our engines are weird, mine vibrates too much at idle IMO. With my old V8 you could hardly tell it was running unless you put your hand on the engine to feel it barely vibrate.
