  • Bad VIBRATIONS.

    So I just got back from a drive around town, and I'm really, really pissed off. I dunno whats going on, but I've never had a vibration issue with this car. (97 3.8 RS) everything is bone stock on it.
    so while driving I was coasting from ~45 approaching a stop, when I was still coasting down to about ~35 this nasty shake came from what felt like the right rear. and it stayed until about 15/20. I shifted through the gears next couple times to see if it was a tranny issue, but it didn't do it again. so I dunno what the deal is. the tires are alll ~42 psi, but there is one issue I've had through winter...I noticed the other day my rear control/sway arm was hanging down, and the bolts were missing, seem to have lost them in the snow. but it's been that way for a few weeks until i get the parts ordered, and I haven't had any problems except for body roll into corners (which I don't take fast) anyway. I'm still pretty pissed I dunno what the deal is. any suggestions? thanks!

    get the bolts and new endlinks in...if the bars loose if may of just hit the car and vibrated against it making you think something is wrong.

    When my exhaust pipe weld broke right at the "S" pipe and the exhaust started hitting the floor of the car...I thought the transmission was going to come through the floor...though I broke something and all hell was going to break loose...turns out it was just the exhaust pipe hitting the floor board...horrible vibration though that made me think it was something sooo much more serious...sound and vibration travel very easily in these cars...

      yeah, i dealt with that noise for a few weeks before i got so mad i took a hammer to my driveshaft tunnel brace.

      i eventually took it off because it had to be installed backwards in order for the exhaust not to hit it.
