    It could be your tires out of balance. Have your tires rotated and balanced. My car did this for awhile until i fixed it. If its a super bad shake its your cv joint. And NO you shouldn't just live with it. Get it replaced or replace it yourself ASAP.

    Don't mean to hijack PNIGZ, but I have been fighting the same problem. New cv's, new rotors, new motor mounts, re-balanced the new tires and it is still shaking on acceleration. Could one of the new cv's be bad?

    Judging by his response, I'd guess you're right.

    ^^ yes i do allighments at my shop for the last 11yrs, and ive noticed alot of vibration after doin new front end parts as in inner/outter tie rods/ struts/balljoints, when i take them for a quick ride to see wich way it pulls/how far steering wheels off. and under excelleration the car actually vibrates cus the cars wheel are fighting each other, cus one wheels tryin to go straight and the other wheel is gettin draged causing hopping if its really really off, or it has a vibration usually if its over a half inch outa toe.the more outa toe the WORSE. and the allighment fixes that,if u have kno other issues.

    even tho the steering wheels straight dosent mean ur allighments are correct.
