sup guys, i was just wondering if any of you ever had a vibration in the steering wheel while accelerating 3000-4000 2nd or 3rd. Every time i merge or pass in the highway i feel it. I it doesn't vibrate in any other gears. And once i'm cursing its gone

first i thought it was the wheels, so i put my stock 17s back on for the winter.
then i checked all mounts, can't visibly see any separated mounts...any ideas?
hope its not my axles

could be an axle.

anyone ever had such a case?

TCM 01 CL-S

Right here. Had very similar symptoms to what you had, it got worst and worst. New axles did the trick.

you changed both or just one?
OEM acura ones are $500 a pop
so im guessing you got reman. ones ?

Mine does this too.....

Only one was messed up, but I had changed both at a local Honda/Acura specialist for $400 installed.

obviously you will only need to replace the axle that is bad.
just because you want oem acura axles doesnt mean that you have to get them from the dealership. usually reman axles suck and dont last long try for oem b4 reman.

did u check ur wheel bearings

True, I forgot to mention to check for other things before replacing your axles.

I put new axles on my car when I bought it, as it was in need of them. Vibrated bad whenever I got onto the throttle, and went completely away when I got new axles.
