Default NOW U HEAR AND FEEL IT NOW YOU DON'T?

hi there! i've been experiencing this weird shaking and like a dribble noise in my 95 gsr with 122,xxx miles. the problem is the noise is on and off. yesterday i was driving at I-20 and suddendly i felt the shaking and hear the noise. the steering wheel is not shaking or vibrating but i can feel the front of the car is shaking, and when i let go off the gas the shaking and noise dissappear. and when i press the gas again, the car shakes and the dribble noise is back. then i stop at a local supermarket and on my way home the shaking and the noise dissappear. what do you think the problem of my car? need your expertise please. thanks for any input.

sounds like your heatshield is coming aloose. check all your heatshields for corrosion and fix/replace/rip out the culprit.

Wobbling only with power suggests your drive axles. Check them out, see if anything's loose. Also loose balljoints on the steering tierods.

It's possible that parts of a tire are separating. Have someone drive alongside while you accelerate. Look for a tire that squirms & wobbles funny when you're on the gas pedal.

my tires is not even a year old (all of them) i had an alignment after installing all four tires and few weeks ago i had my tires rotate and balance because of this unusually noise/shaking/vibrating that gets louder as I increase speed and dissappear when I let go of the gas. is it expensive to replace axle?

lol.... just so you know the axle are the ones that go from the tranny to the wheels , o and the bolt that holds them to the hub of the wheel are not easy **** to take off . you got to have huevos or a are gun , &lt;--- thats what i use , so just take it to a shop and let them do it , unless you think you know how

I call the dealer and they what $399 ea.+tax, just the axle, labor is separate. Haven't call autozone and o'reilly. No, I'm not planning on replacing it myself. A knowledgeble HT member told me to avoid CCT rebuilt axle from autozone.

I got axles from Kragen for super cheap. most shops are going to charge you $150 per side just to put them on.

as for the axle nut, I dunno why everyone had so much trouble. I just used a big freakin ratchet and used my superior MUSCLES. of course, to get it to turn, you have to bend out the endge that was punched in to keep it from vibrating loose.

even though there is a lot of material about this on HT, I would suggest taking it somewhere if you can afford it. just make sure it's a reputable shop. the place that did mine for 1/2 the price everyone else asked had morons for mechanics. they told me one axle was too short...it didn't match the one off the car. I went down there and told him to pull the axle apart from the intermediate shaft. "see? same size." dumbass.
