What causes the car body to shake when shifting from N to D gear?

The reasons for the car body shaking when shifting from N to D gear: 1. The engine mount rubber is worn out, causing vibration. 2. Gear shift impact, meaning either the clutch plate in the transmission is burnt or the gear solenoid valve is malfunctioning. 3. Similar to manual transmissions, there will always be some sound when shifting from neutral, as long as it's not the sound of gear grinding, it's acceptable. As long as it doesn't affect usage, it's fine; you can't expect mechanical parts to be completely flawless, just like people, each has its own characteristics. 4. After shifting from N to D, wait 1-2 seconds before starting to move. Starting immediately causes the gear to rapidly shift from 2 to 1, resulting in noise.
From my driving experience, it's actually quite common for the car body to shake slightly when shifting from N to D gear. This mainly happens because when switching from neutral to drive, the sudden connection between the engine and transmission causes an instantaneous vibration due to the load change, especially noticeable when the car has just started or is idling. If the shaking is mild and occurs occasionally, it's mostly a normal mechanical response. However, if it happens severely every time or is accompanied by strange noises, then it's time for a check-up—issues like aging engine mounts, insufficient transmission fluid, or clutch wear could be the culprits. I recommend ensuring the brake is firmly pressed before shifting to reduce the jerkiness; regular vehicle maintenance, checking fluids and engine mounts, can prevent potential failures. Remember, don't ignore small issues—addressing them promptly ensures driving safety and saves on repair costs.
