Default Threw a CEL, shortly after engine shaking..

A couple days ago I noticed that the engine would occasionally "shutter" or "buck" during decelleration coming down from speeds of 30-70mph. Feels like it's bucking just as I let off the gas. Just threw a CEL this morning as I entered the freeway. I was only 50% on the throttle. STFA..engine mounts? Maybe misfiring? I guess I need to VAG it somewhere. I am stock. Any other ideas? Thanks.

misfire probably... probably plugs or coil packs. Just go to an autozone and have them check the code.

Default I heard they won't let you do that anymore...

Something about some emissions regulations and they don't want to be held liable. Still worth a shot, though. I posted on my local forum(chicago) to see if anyone has a vag...for beer of course!
