Exclamation Engine/Car Shudders When Turning Off. Normal?

Just today, I noticed that when I turn my car off, the whole car shudders as the engine stops, for maybe a second or so. There is no sound, just a shudder that you can feel. Is this normal? Or should I have the dealership check it out?

The car only has 8K miles on it, no engine mods whatsoever. Check engine light is not lit. Any suggestions/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Funny thing is, this morning when I turned the engine off, there was no shudder. Just a purr and the jet-engine sound of the compressor, and silence. This is definitely strange...

Might want to consider changing Gas stations and or throw in some fuel injector cleaner/ dry gas. Sounds like you could have some ondensation in the gas lines or tank. Try using a higher octance of gas also.
