ever since i changed my axles last weekend i have had a subtle studder or shake when i accelerate, and only when accelerating. it dosen't relly feel like it's the motor, it feels like it's something in the tranny/axles? i really have no idea what could be causing this?? any ideas?

if you get alot of rumbling in the steering wheel it's probably your suspention or axels. if its rumbling in the car over all it might be the tranny, or engine.

don't know if this helps, be a little more specific.

Tim.

hmmm. its really not the whole car... i guess its more just the steering wheel. but the passenger can also feel it. ehh confused?


has this happned to anyone else?

only when accelerating? how about decelerating while in gear? see if you can find a pattern in the RPMs if any.

but it sounds like it's in your axels. might want to have it checked.

Tim.

i can mostly feel the vibration when i'm about 50-60% on the throttle, and its the worst at 2.5K-5K. Again, its ONLY during acceleration. Not while decelerating in gear at all.

when i get a chance illl pull it apart and check bolts and **** i guess

Hope you got a warranty on those axles. if it was the suspension, it would happen at a certain speed, not a certain rpm (or throttle input), and it would happen wheter you were accelerating or not.

Tim.

Kinda what I was thinking... i do have a warranty on the axles, thank god.

Problems like this bother me though.... is it possible it could be the motor?????? ehhh

not likely. a friend of mine went through 4 autozone axles one time before he found one that didn't vibrate. They don't always do the best job with the re-builds.

thanks man, that really good to know. i havent even hit vtec for a week bc i was scared to haha. i guess ill just have to check everytihng out and if i dont see anything ill have to change another axle...... damn... i hope i can figure out which side it is. :/

thanks again

hey man did u ever find out what was wrong?? I'm going throught the same problems and I can't figure it out either

civic_driver

make sure the axles are good and plugged all the way in.. if you removed any grounds make sure they're connected clean and tight... you don't want to touch electrical connections with slimy hands

also, i'd check the TPS and MAP sensors just for kicks to see if they're working properly

boostedcivicsir

if it does is only when on the gas, and goes away as soon as you let off the throttle, you have an inner joint issue.

i went to look for problems and I found that my rear rubber mount is broken... would this cause my car to shake at certain loads through out the RPM's?

civic_driver

definitely
