Fellow vancouverite.

You shouldn't see the shifter vibrate in neutral, maybe a bit in 1st gear. But you will always feel it vibrate a bit.

Oil - stick with what the dealer recommends and change it often.
Gas - I use Chevron 92 octane. 94 doesn't do it any better. Esso is very similar to Chevron. Stay away from mohawk, I believe the manual doesn't recommend ethanol/methanol blends. My previous cars never felt good with shell, petro can and the other brands so I never tried them on the G.
