Why is my Kia Sorento engine shaking at idle?

I have a 2020 Kia Sorento and I've noticed that the engine starts to shake when I am at a stoplight or in traffic. It seems to be more noticeable when the AC is on. What could be causing this issue?

Hi Samantha, one potential cause for this issue could be a dirty air filter. A dirty air filter can cause the engine to run rough and potentially shake at idle. It is recommended to have the air filter checked and replaced if needed.

Hello Samantha, another possible cause for engine shaking at idle could be a problem with the spark plugs. If the spark plugs are worn or dirty, they may not be able to ignite the fuel properly, causing the engine to shake. It's best to have the spark plugs checked and replaced if needed.

Hi Samantha, a faulty ignition coil can also cause engine shaking at idle. The ignition coil is responsible for providing the spark to ignite the fuel, so if it is malfunctioning, it can affect the engine's performance. It's best to have the ignition coil checked and replaced if necessary.
