You said it only happens when you stop at lights. Do you have Auto Stop/Start fitted?. When it is activated mine shudders briefly as the engine turns off.

Mine was doing that occassionally and then I started getting drivetrain errors. They went away for a day or two and then came back. The dealer replaced all of my fuel injectors. They claimed a bad batch of injectors were to blame, and seemed to know all about it. Haven't had a problem since.

I have the same problem. It's like a twitching that happens every few seconds with the heater on. You can hear it if you listen closely by the drivers headlamp. I need to bring my car in to get all my problems fixed.
