Between 1,000 and 2,000 RPMs my car violently shudders in any gear whether it is parked or driving

It sounds like a misfire, but the engine runs smoothly otherwise. I had a technician look at it, he said it could be a vacuum leak on the engine. So, I then I replaced all main vacuum hoses, but didn't fix the issue. Another tech told me it could be the Auto Transmission vacuum modulator but I'm not sure. I am just wondering if anyone on here has ever run into similar problems with their car listed above LX model.

It sounds more like a mixture problem, have you replaced the spark plug? I would remove the plugs and see what they look like, either black or light tan. Also, if you can take a quick video of what the engine is doing it would help us fix it. These guides can help us get started. You can upload the video here in your response.
