since youve done all those are you experiencing any high rpm power loss?
Id take it to the dealer and do a compression test.

yes, rotary engine shakes a little at idle but shouldn't be too excessive. it could be due to worn out engine mounts.
by getting hot you mean warmed up or overheating? temp needle should be around middle when fully warmed up.
shutting off is not normal, you have any error codes?

i think it over heating cause i can feel the heat around the engine in about 10 minute after turning on, n after i put in drive for 100 meter the car shutdown then i wait for couple minute then i can turn it back on, but mine usually idle at 1 n before it dint shake like this, if the cat is clogged would it cause this kind of symptom?

hows your gas millage? shutting off is not normal. and after you drive around for a while in the dark, can you see the cat glowing red?
