Allo,
well, my TE Wagon, it Vibrates when i drive, not all the time, it seems only when the car gets to a certain amount of revs, like if I am in second, i get to about the half way point through second gear and it vibrates the ass outta the car. I hope my description is good haha.
My problem isnt my torque tube, as I have replaced this about 3 weeks ago, and thats a o k!
Also, my exhaust, its broken on the last muffler, like, completely broken, and theres 2 places where there is wire holding the pipe onto the body aswell. So, could the vibratintg of the whole car be coming from that?
OR.....could it be something to do with my Diff? or Tail Shaft?
Please help, the vibrating is making me feel like a very lucky Vagina.... (no offence to any ladies there)
Sorry for the long post, im just a bit baffled as to why I shake like a friggin ass all the time....
Thanks All

Bernard

you could have a slice in your spark plug leads. leave the car running while in the dark and check to see if there is a spark arching accross your leads

who knows, might, and might not. but a m8 of mine had this typa problem, when u gave the car a bit, like 3k and up, i kept or going up, just had sorta pauses in the process of catching it's revs, and the car vibrated and shook a bit, sorta like if it were running on three cylinders. he changed his points ($10), and new leads, and is all good now.
