2005 DB9 / crank no start

Car ran fine yesterday, then started and ran poorly today. Drove car around the block. Check engine light - emissions control warning - traction control warning - then shut car off - and now it will just crank without starting. System check now reads: Engine safety shutdown. Has codes stored for throttle faults. Ideas?

    It was the throttle pedal. It has two readings (one for each side of the engine) and one of the readings was stuck at 99% the other was at 0%. It would not let the car start under that condition. No reason it failed. Just electrical bug.

My car ran fine yesterday. Today I tried to start it it cranks but won't fully start

What do you mean by fully start? If it is running poorly it could be the fuel pump, filter or the relay .

What causes the shaking engine and bucking in gear (manual) on semi-cold start?

Check for a possible cold start injector problem or a possible motor or transmission mount that is loose or broken.

Engine needs to crank over strong and steady to have a chance of starting. Youi said it has a poor crank. Battery may be low or bad. If you get the engine to crank over corrrectly and it srill does not start check fuel pressure, spark and injector pulse.

Car shaking/ vibrating...

I WOULD ALMOST BET THAT THE SHAKING OF THE CAR IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THUS ONE PROBLEM. IT COULD BE BAD INJECTOR(S) OR JUST POOR MAINTENENCE. WITH 88K ON IT I THINK IT WOULD BE SOMETHING MINOR. HOPE THIS HELPS. LET ME KNOW. THANKS FOR USING FIX-YA. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR AN HONEST RATING AS WELL.
