ok been having a wierd shake at speeds of like 40-50 miles an hour and at speeds of like 72-80 mph seems to be comming from the rear end as i dont feel it in the steering wheel all so much but def. in the seat. as far as my searching has brought me i have come to the conclusion that its almost positively the cv joints which references (saftey recall: 02-063 OCT 02 Drivetrain - Vibration From Rear on Acceleration)

have any of you experienced this? did the replacement of the rear cv's really fix the problem? its very strange and honestly annoys the hell outta me and just want to make sure this is going to fix everything.....

thanks guys

 

nobody?

 

are you lowered? either way its probably your axles...

 

check your tire pressure? or tire baldness?

imo, it would have something to do with your tires, but that is just imo....imo imo imo.

if you disagree, dont flame me thanks.


....stupid general debate and disscussion thread.

 

tires in good condition?
tire pressures?
alignment?
axel nut torqued to spec?
wheels balanced?
CV joints out?

theres your list get going!

 

i have kind of ruled out tires as it doesnt happen at all speeds and all the time (no flame here i originally thought that too). and no im not lowered its stock height right now; i did however just purchase spoon half shaft spacers and will be putting them in when i do finally lower the car.

havent thought about the axel nut i will check that tonight. and ill prolly end up replacing the cv's.

 

thanks alot guys ill let you know the outcome when i fix this annoying problemo

 

the spacers are hit and miss my car was lowered for 2 years and never had issues with the axels...
