mine used to bang when shut down and one of the exhaust mounts was too long and tapped the chassis side rail when the motor shuddered.

check out your mounts as well, but it is also normal for there to be a fair bit of movement when it turns off.

The 5L (3.0L) had a butterfly in the intake to allow for 'soft shutdown'. I assume it choked the engine slowly instead of abruptly shutting off the fuel?

...so i suppose, partly, it's always been an L-series thing :P

Otherwise I'd suspect it could be trying to run-on for some reason. How many km? Smokey? (what colour? at idle/under power/when taking off?) Injectors/pump been serviced at any stage? edit: timing? :lol:
