Why does the Baojun 510 AMT shake when starting?

[Rich]

Baojun 510 AMT shaking when starting is caused by severe wear or displacement of the clutch fork. Severe engine carbon deposits: The most common cause of car shaking is a dirty throttle body or excessive carbon deposits in the fuel injectors. When there is too much carbon deposit inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold start injector will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits. Engine misfire: Engine misfire mainly refers to one or more cylinders in the engine not working properly. It manifests as an obvious intermittent flow of exhaust gas from the car, severe shaking of the exhaust pipe, and noticeable engine vibration, sometimes accompanied by a sputtering sound. This is mostly related to ignition coil failure. Engine air-fuel mixture being sometimes lean and sometimes rich: This causes idle shaking after a cold start. The lower the temperature, the more fuel is needed for a cold start, and the presence of carbon deposits will significantly affect whether the cold start proceeds smoothly.

After years in auto repair, I've seen it all. The most common cause of jerky starts in the Baojun 510 AMT is improper clutch engagement or worn clutch plates. AMT transmissions rely on electronically controlled clutches - if the positioning is off or the electronic control system has issues during takeoff, it'll cause stuttering and vibrations. Unstable engine idle is another culprit; spark plug carbon buildup or uneven fuel injection can affect smoothness. Temperature extremes may also slow down sensor response, amplifying the shudder. My advice: avoid aggressive starts, try gentle acceleration first. If that doesn't help, get the clutch and ECU checked professionally ASAP. Small issues left unchecked can snowball into costly overhauls.

I've been driving my 510 AMT for over a year, and occasionally the shaking at startup is so bad it makes my hands go numb. At first, I thought it was a car issue, but after adjusting my driving habits, it improved a lot—slowly releasing the brake and gently pressing the accelerator, as being too hasty or stomping on the pedal worsens the vibration. Maintenance is also crucial; for example, if the engine oil is too old or the clutch fluid is insufficient, parts wear out faster. Once, the shaking was severe, and the 4S shop said a sensor was faulty—replacing it fixed the issue. So don’t take it lightly; regular checks on fuel system cleanliness and wiring harness connections can prevent a lot of unnecessary vibrations.

The AMT system is actually quite sophisticated. The shaking during the start of the Baojun 510 is often caused by clutch actuator position deviation or control logic errors. Some software versions may have bugs leading to uneven engagement, and inaccurate sensor readings due to temperature changes during cold starts are also common. Coupled with engine fuel supply issues such as clogged fuel injectors, unstable idling can amplify the shaking. It is recommended to use diagnostic tools to scan for fault codes, check the status of the air flow meter and fuel filter, and maintaining system cleanliness can significantly improve the situation.

Don't ignore vehicle starting vibrations. For the Baojun 510 AMT, electronic control failures or circuit issues like loose fuses are most common, but engine carbon buildup can also indirectly cause shaking. I believe regular maintenance is crucial—checking clutch fluid levels monthly and changing engine oil quarterly can prevent worsening. Safety-wise, vibrations during red light starts may cause distraction-related rear-end collisions, so if issues arise, have a technician use a multimeter to test wiring connections. Early repairs ensure smooth and worry-free daily driving.
