Been trying to shakedown driveline vibration that drives me crazy. It feels like a wheel is slightly out of balance but the tires have about 5000 miles on them and I have taken the car back to them three times.The last time I made them show me so I would know.It feels like the trans to me possibly but I am not sure the car has no loose or worn components at all the motor mounts seem ok I am at a loss.At 70 it vibrates the seat and door panel on the pass side on a exit ramp you can feel it fairly good and I think I hear some growling ??
 


nothing is loose in the front end tires have 5000 miles falkens and I have taken them back three times cause it feels like a bent wheel almost
 
the car is super clean I know that doesn't matter it had a abs light on I replaced that hub and turned out the wiring was bad I replaced all four rotors a couple months ago you feel it worst on ramps for some reason this is a dealer serviced garage kept vehicle with the original paint in very good condition no accidents
 


it seems like its on the gas only I thought about that but they make no noise or anything I don't know to be honest I always think the worst I figured it as the differential
 
I hadn't driven my car in a while, and recently noticed a burning smell....ended up being a sticky caliper...who knows how long it had been that way, but I noticed obvious vibration due to it....
 
If it vibrates on acceleration and not during coast or deceleration it is a bad cv joint. Most people find the right inner cv joint is the one that goes bad most frequently.

my axle was vibrating only when light on the gas, off the gas nothing. my guess is i caught it before the clicking sounds happened. my boot never leaked grease either.

inside that boot is a U joint type set up, feels just like a bad u joint on rwd drive shaft. if you ever felt one of them when bad.
 
I will try to put axles in it they are only 45 bucks a piece so its not that bad and hope for the best thanks for the input i was doing some reading on here and read that the diffs can cause this also ???
