I think this is my second post here. I use to be a member of the PTcruiser Club back in 2001, we had one of the first PT Cruisers on Vancouver Island. Lovd the car and regretted selling it. So here we are again with another :-)

My non turbo 2005 Convert with 21000 miles is doing a couple of odd things. Firstly it is running rough at idle, better when cold though (higher rpm) but rough, and when warm really bad I would say. Whether in park or drive or whatever it is the same roughness really.

Also when accelerating after she warms up, I get shaking, and I mean the entire care does the shimmy sometimes, especially when going up hilss or under more strain just above 2000rpm, but it can also be felt at or near 3000rpm on continuous acceleration. But when cold I don't notice this as much and sometimes not at all when cold.....Could this be an 02 sensor that is faulty causing both issues?

As I said when the car is cold I do not get any shaking but it still runs rough at stop lights etc. The problems seems to show up after she warms up. I realize some roughness is normal as with our 2001 but this is not right.

I have ordered some Crane wires from Race and Street so when they arrive I will get some champion plugs and get that done hopefully that will help.

Am I on the right track here?

Thanks
