Vibration under acceleration
I've read of a few examples of this but havent really found a definite answer.
The vibration in my tl occurs at a specific range (50-60 mph) but only under acceleration. If i let off the gas at this speed it goes smooth again so I think my balance/alignment are not an issue. My tranny was replaced 8,000 miles ago, and they did not mention anything wrong with the motor/tranny mounts when that was done.
One thing possibly worth mentioning is that my rotors are severly warped, so its possible that the constant vibration from them has affected something else. I also put on new rims/tires about 2,000 miles ago and this has just started happening.
Let me know what you think

I have the same issue, steering wheel vibrates specifically at 60mph. I think I also have warped rotors. ![Annoyed](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/annoyed.gif)
yeah, this post isn't helpful, but curious to see some responses as I've been meaning to put up a post about this.

well lets see my car vibrates from 40-50...the steering wheel doesnt have as much vibration as the seats and the gas pedal. i took it to acura and they said i bent all 4 of my rims. havent gotten around to getting a second opinion but defi check your rims

maybe tie rod ends are loose, not sure if that will cause a vibration. if you know your rotors are warped I would replace those asap and hopefully your problem goes away. get an alignment after you replace your brakes and if there is a problem somewhere else the shop doing the alignment should be able to find out what it is for you. good luck bro!
