    Ok so I just got my car back from the shop with a rebuilt tranny about 2 days ago. Omw to work today the whole front end started to shake like it had a loose wheel. It's not a loos wheel. Any ideas?

    They put your tires on wrong.. Do you have directional tires on your wheels? Same thing just happened to me after getting pads replaced.
    If they took your tires off that might be the case.

    GOD these cars are notorious for front end wobble!!! Well since they took your axles out I would check the axles than move to suspension. Jack it up check the ball joints, tie rod ends, etc. ACTUALLY scratch that THEY need to fix it since it happened after they worked on it call them and see if that's a possibility
    There is no replacement for displacement........unless you have a supercharger or turbo

    Something goes ca-clunk ca-clunk too, like a wobbling loose rim. Whatever, Chance Transmissions will be fixing it or I want my munnies back.

    Found out what's wrong with the car. I noticed my rear LH wheel has a very nasty toe in. Took a look under the car & I found a broken trailing arm. Who would've guessed?
