When I go to start my car my engine shakes which makes my whole front end shake until I give it gas. Also when I've went to start my car it starts up but seconds later it cuts back off so I'll wait for about 5 mins start it again and give it a little gas and its fine. My engine is loud nor is my service engine light on.

When was the last tune up with a fuel filter? Have you checked fuel pump pressure? Have you checked for vacuum leaks?

I've had my car for 2yrs and I am the 2nd owner I havent had a full tune up, Ive had my spark plugs changed and engine coolant flushed, My transmission fuild still has its bright color so I didnt get that changed even tho they said I should because it's dirty. I havent checked any of that because the Chrysler dealer saud they would need to do a full diagnostics test on my car before they can tell me whats wrong with it and they charge a pretty penny to have that done plus 112. An hour in labor. Than I took it to a transmission place in my local area he said my car sounds and runs fine and he doesnt know why that is happening.
Also, I meant to say my engine ISNT loud, its pretty quite.
So, Is it something I could find and check for myself or explain to someone where to look and maybe they can check for me?
