Default Driveline Vibration at 5 mph / 1500 Rpm's???

When I take off from a complete stop, at about 5 mph or 1500 rpm's I get a vibration thru the driveline. It feels like more of a mechanical problem and not the engine studdering...

It's done it since I got the car, so that rules out my axle and timing belt replacement as possible causes...

Ideas?

I noticed the same thing since I bought my car. When I put energy suspension motor mount inserts in, it went away.

Hmmm...sounds like a possibility based on the way it feels...

Accord94DX...where did you get your parts?

Thanks!

By driveline, I mean it feels like it's coming thru the tranny or axles...somewhere in that area...

There's no sound or rattling with my problem...

heck i am having similar problem at 1100 rpm. no matter whether the car is stationary or in motion, as soon as the rpm shows 1100, bang, the vibration starts and goes away as soon as the rpm increases or decreases from 1100. Got the timing belt replacement and this problem came in. the mechanic undid and redid the whole thing once more just to see whether they mis-aligned the balancer belt but that's fine. they did a free fuel injector cleaning. I've new NGK plugs and he says the mounts look good. have 105k miles on this honda accord 99 2.3L VTEC. I hate to go to a dealer and get fleeced. any suggestion will be helpful.
