I was driving home yesterday and when I was pulling off from a set of lights, I really gave it some. I felt like a small stall, then it was fine. But now, when I accellerate quick from a stand, it rattles like I'm on one of those dirt roads with all the wave stuff... really bad, like as if the diff was not attached to the car, but just floatting free and car is boucing up and down on it.
If I take off at a decent speed or when I'm travelling at high speeds its fine. The throthle also feels very very light. (feels nice, but not sure if it means trouble)
nah they're fine, all suspension is fine.
you know what a mobile phone feels like when it vibrates? image your car doing that when you accelerate hard from a standing. That's exactly what it feels like.

When your curising at high speeds, and release the pedal, does it vibrate?
Nah, its fine, only when I take off, and only when I do it quickly.
It's got me stumped.
It's as if the motor wasn't connected to the rest of the car I was just reving the crap out of it, but it moves slowly. I haven't done it for long coz it's the worst feeling when I hear it.
