My toyota camry shakes when it is idling either at a stop light or parked. I believe it's the engine mounts, is there anything else that could be causing it? Also there is an uneven wear on my tires. I went and got them balanced and aligned several times, but they say it is something else. I know that the stuts have seen better days (it has 225000 miles), but I've started noticing a slight noise when I turn. Would this be the cv joints? Is it a pretty easy job to replace all of this on my own?

Hi there,

Have a tune done & get the compressions tested for the rough idle, the drive shafts are not hard to replace but you have to be able to undo the shaft lock nuts which are extremely tight, have the suspension tested as faulty struts will cause excessive tyre wear.

Try cleaning your IAC or if you have money to spend replace it.
