Why is my 01 Chevy Malibu shaking real bad when I am stopped?

Asked by Shannon Sep 27, 2016 at 11:49 PM about the 2001 Chevrolet Malibu FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Shakes bad like I am a bobble head when stopped.
Drives fine but when stopped no have to put it in
neutral or park to make it stop. It has had a tune
up. O2 sensor and mass air flow sensor replaced.
Code p0412 came up but car does not have air
pump. Also no exhaust leak and new muffler.
