Bad Vibration under 50% or more acceleration but only in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear
its a weird problem...
i searched through the archives and it seems to be cv joint or a problem with the driveshaft or even a problem with the axles...
what i dont get is why it only happens when im accelerating in 3rd 4th and 5th gear.
i can rev out 1st gear with no problems, no vibrations whatsoever. well minus road conditions.
if anyone can give me a definite answer that would be great...

bump for a solution...
im thinking it might be axles...i need to see which speed its happening at...
its definitely not occuring from a dead stop or even through first. its a bit noticeable during 2nd gear, but all hell breaks loose when i get into 3rd...

Lol. CV joint, drive shaft, and axle are all the same thing.
Im 99.9% sure your problem is a bad inner CV joint. Just replace the whole axle.

haha, didnt realize its all one thing...
now i understand why it happens only in those gears...its when im going a certain speed. its about 55mph and above where it gets pretty bad.
going tomorrow to get everything replaced hopefully that will fix the problem...anyone have any recommendations?
