Vibration - Transmissions :: 2002 Mitsubishi Galant Shaking At Stop Lights

I am having issues that i think are related to the transmission.

When I am stopped and the car is in drive it starts to vibrate significantly however once i start moving again the vibrations stop.

Switching to neutral or reverse also causes the vibrations to stop.

I am thinking that somehow the transmission is not fully disengaging when the break is pressed like it is supposed to but i may be way off on this.

Suzuki - Aerio :: 2005 - Vibration / Tensioner Pulley Making A Lot Of Noise

i just recently went to a mechanic check out my wife's car cause it was vibrating really bad, and a pulley was making a lot of noise... they told me that the alternator bearings were shot, and i needed 4 motor mounts, long story short i changed the alternator.... it wasn't the problem... had them check it again, they said power steering.... i didn't want to waist a couple hours of work again, i checked it myself like i should have done in the first place... and found out it was the tensioner pulley.... so can i get any pointers on how to change the tensioner pulley, cause i tried and i lacked about 1/4" of space to get the bolt out... do i need to drop the engine or raise it? if so how.. 2005 suzuki aerio 2.3L .....

Suzuki - Xl7 :: 2002 4WD Cutting Out / Inconsistent Power / Stalling When Put It In Gear

2002 Suzuki XLZ 4WD. It has 149,000 miles, has had a new starter, new fuel pump and lines, and new brakes in the past year. Bought it a couple of weeks ago and took it straight to shop, so I have no personal history with this car.

Now: have replaced all catalytic converters and exhaust pipe. Have also replaced Mass Air Flow Sensor.

Great news - all computer codes are cleared. Runs great when in park or neutral (30 min or more). Mechanics then moved it around parking lot with no problem, so they trusted it enough to take it on a test drive on the open road. Made it out of sight of shop (not sure how far, but it was an improvement over the last time!)...but required tow back.

Hooked back up to diagnostic computer, and found NO error codes. They are doing what they call "exploratory surgery" (yikes). Am I wrong in thinking this is probably a TPS issue? What are the other things that could cause this inconsistent power/stalling when it is put in gear?

Jetta - Volkswagen - Transmissions :: 2002 - Won't Shift Past 3rd Gear?

I have the above referenced car with about 65k miles on it. Today I took it for a drive, switched it to tip-tronic manual and found that the car would not shift past 3rd gear. When I switched to automatic, the transmission stayed on tip-tronic (the display indicated I was on 3rd gear). I had to fully stop the car, place it on park and only then did the transmission switch to automatic.

Toyota - Corolla :: 2002 - Ticking Valves At Past 50 MPH While Motor Is Unloaded?

I have a 2002 Toyota Corolla CE with 160,000 miles on the odometer. While driving at highway speeds (50+ mph), if I let off the gas ever-so-slightly, an audible ticking (like the sound of a sewing machine) begins. It immediately goes away as soon as the motor begins to decelerate or accelerate again. It ticks the loudest while the motor is directly in between accelerating and decelerating, while I am trying to maintain the speed I am traveling at. The sound started 6 months ago and was almost unnoticeable, but has gotten steadily louder the more I drive it. From what I have already researched, I believe it might the valve lifters needing to be changed, but wanted to get a second opinion.

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Vibration / Shaking At 40 - 45 And 70 - 80 Mph

So, I started my journey in getting vibrations out of my car at the dealer (I know, I know, but it's CPO) - had rotors resurfaced, brake job, fluid flushed etc. That worked with pedal pulsing etc.

Now, fast forward 6 months - still have a notable shake at times 40-45, 70-80mph indicated. Took it back to dealer; tires are shot - I figured just a rotate, balance and align would be the cure. I bit the bullet, put on some MXVs and got the car aligned - again, at the dealer. Old tires had the edges fully worn (outside).

Today, after a 200 mile drive, the vibrations are back, and I REALLY don't want to go back to my dealer a third time to resolve this - in addition to not wanting to destroy a brand new set of tires. Who can I turn to to get this under control?

Ford Transmission :: Shaking / Vibration Between 45 - 50 Mph

I have owned my truck for 2 yrs now and put close to 100K on it. It has always had a slight vibration which I attributed to tires and/or one rim that requires a lot of weight to balance correctly.

In the past 4-5 months the vibration has become much worse, between 45-50 mph the truck would literally shake you out of the seat. I decided to pull the drive shaft out and have new u-joints installed and have it balanced. 2 hrs after dropping the drive shaft off at the repair shop, the owner calls me to say the tube is dented and he offers to re-tube the drive shaft for half his normal price. basically he cuts the flanges off the old shaft and welds old flanges on a new tube.

I have a new rear drive shaft that balanced out perfectly. Its so pretty, I don't want to install it in the truck.

Saturn - Vue :: 2004 V6 Shaking And Vibration From Front End?

Several months ago already, when I am driving up any type of slight incline, usually it happens between 2 and third gear shifting, It is an automatic, I can feel a vibration that comes through the pedal , and floor board. It actually makes the whole front end of the car shake, almost like a tremor. Over time it has gotten worse. Now when I'm sitting at a light it has a noise it makes and also rattles. It sounds somewhat like I'm grinding on the muffler, or transmission. I don't know what it is.

Chevrolet - Corvette :: 1986 - Vibration And Shaking At 65 - 75 Mph

I have 1986 Gold Corvette, which now has Antique Virginia Plates. I had a terrible Vibration at 65 - 75 MPH that would shake the car so bad I could not drive it more than 20 minutes and I could not tell if it was in the front or the back.

I had the following installed: Front and Rear Wheel Bearing/Hub Assembly (Timken), Front and Rear Brake Rotors, Front and Rear Rebuilt Calipers, Front and Rear Hawk/ Wellman HPS Brake Pads and four Stainless Steel Brake Hoses.

Now the vibration is about half-gone, but still shakes the GoldVette at 65 - 75 MPH, and I still cannot tell if it is in the front or the back.

A few years ago, I replaced the Rack-in-pinion and Tie Rod Ends. What do I replace next to eliminate the vibration so that I can drive it about 100 miles?

Prius (2010-12) :: Engine Shaking / Vibration 50 - 75 MPG

My 2010 Prius engine shakes/vibrates when the engine is showing between 50-75 MPG on the gauge/meter on the dashboard. There is no vibration when coasting (100 MPG on the gauge/meter on dashboard) or when I am accelerating pretty modestly. Only when accelerating very softly. It started a month or so after I had my spark plugs replaced at 133K miles last June 2015. It has gotten progressively worse. It is especially noticeable once the engine is warm or the outside temperature is warm. During the winter months the vibration was there slightly, but not nearly as noticeable as it is becoming now that warmer weather is here.

Camry :: 2011 LE Shaking At 65ph - Vibration When Braking

I bought this car new around 6,000 miles the dealer machine the rotors (front only) do to a vibration when I was braking to make a long story short I took the car to 4 different mechanics including 2 toyota dealership. The car vibrates at 65mph they did 2 alignments, I got new tires, balanced the tires like 10 times by different mechanics, got new rims and tires, check all the suspension parts and the car still shakes I don't know what to do next........my next step is changing the rotors and brakes on the front and see what happens... Because the shaking start after they machine the rotors.

Ford - Aviator :: 2003 - Shaking And Vibration At Most Speeds

I have an 03 Aviator with the full-time AWD with about 138,000 miles on the odometer. The truck is reliable and I love it, but I keep noticing a shake and vibration going on, I notice it at almost any speed, I'm pretty sure it gets worse at high speeds and when braking ( especially at high speeds). would this be a transmission problem, a bad cv or u joint? or would it be bad tires or wheel bearings? shocks/struts, rotors?
