i just got a new transmission in my q45because the old one craped out . when i replaced the transmission i found that one of the problem that i was having was not solved . the car shakes at idle and more so a 2000rpms , in park, and in drive. sometimes the shake is not present but most times it is . my Q has an intake w/ aftermarket filter an stock mass air. thismay or may not be the problem . i cleaned all of this and a small change was seen but i cant bare to live with this, and so far has cost 1600 dollarand when i only paid22 for it miles/ 114000 trans./ 40000 other problem/ ticking when car is off from muffler and smell of gas what can i do

Its a good place to start. Read EVERYTHING.Then come back here and search through the previous Q45 threads.(Again, more reading )

Also, where is the gas smell the strongest?Interior or exterior?

Does the shake almost feel like a "Bounce" at idle? That's how I've always described my injector failures. Time to ohm the injectors...

yes, this shake is more like a bounce and time to time it may have a sluggish start. when i first went to this website i had no clue what the hell was going on with my Q. so what you are saying is to ohm test and possibly replace. do you happen to know what is the ohm is rate and how i can good injectors of cheep . thanks for all the help.
