a little vibrating is normal. Is the car shaking a lot? or just the steering wheel?

The engine idle may be too low, the wheels may be out of balance, and/or the motor mounts are shot.

↑↑↑↑↑ right, motor mounts are a common cause for vibration, be sure to check them.
Age is the #1 killer for rubber, and seeing that your car is 13 years old.......
