Mine was doin the same thing! For me it was a LF axel shaft...it fixed the vibration on the highway but now it shakes REALLY bad in town after about 20-30 minutes of driving..diagnosis: new tranny! (not a result of the axel shaft replacement)

Id check the MAF sensor....

A quick test to see if it faulty...Un plug it, start the car and drive it ...
If it no longer shakes, and gets up to speed normally...Then its a Faulty MAF sensor...

Which you can then resolve it by either getting some MAF cleaner, or replace it with a new one...

Its not recommended to drive it with the MAF unplugged for any length of time other than test purposes!
