My 97 camry 860000 miles.
When i sit at a red light i feel a little vibration when my hand is on the
steering wheel
But when i drive the car runs smooth.
When sitting still it idles at 500 rpm
Any suggestions ?

My '91 is like that, I reckon it's normal... for a Camry. One of the many
things I don't like about it.

That's probably the idle air control valve sticking. Do a search on IAC
cleaning. It should idle at around 700, not 500.

We fixed that problem on my daughter's car by using Sea Foam in a couple
tanks of gas.

That's probably not collected at the beach, can you elaborate what it is?
