Please help! I wanna know if my tranny is going

In the end of Feb 09 I bought a 03 CL Type S with only 25k miles on it and haven't had any problems before except with the radio controls on the steering wheel do what ever they want. Any way I was driving yesterday and my car was shaking the whole day. You can feel the shaking through the whole car but in the front shakes a lot worse. If you put your hand on the dash you can really feel it shake and it shakes at all speeds. It almost feels like a really bad shimmy but I dont think it is. If anyone has ever experienced this and knows what the problem is.It just started yesterday soon as I drove it. Please let me know what you think it is. I would greatly appreciate it.

OK.. it's most likely not the tranny..
First off, are there any Check engine lights on?
If there is fun the codes , if its cylinders misfiring then u have a bad coil pack, no problem. If there is no CEL and it shakes only when braking then your rotors are warped, u need to cut the rotors or need new rotors.
Im in NJ if u need any help with this I know this car like the back of my hand.

Do you remember hitting any potholes? You could've bent one of your wheels.

Does the car shake at rest? If so, it's likely a misfire. If not, it's likely a wheel/tire problem.
