Default Need Help from All of You, please !!!

I'd just bought a 08 Chevy Silverado, V8 5.3L Iron Block engine. The problem that I'd experienced is engine kind of shaky @ idle. Andit is shakemore when the wheel first moves forwardwhile slowlyreleasing the brake. I brouhgt to the Dealer asking them to take a look. The Dealer told me that is the way the engine built and all other Sliverados do the same. Any advice from you all would highly appreciated. Any one of you run into a such issue? Thank you very much.

-NG.

This is a normal operating characteristic with these engines; they have a little lope at and just off idle. This engine shake will usually diminish somewhat with time and miles, it’s nothing to be alarmed about and is caused in part by the moderately aggressive camshaft profile.
