After reading all the stories about trannies,etc - I'm worried I might have a problem. But I could just be paranoid.

When I drive, especially when accelerating - I feel a "rubbing" vibration/sensation through the gas pedal. It's VERY light and almost unoticeable. However, I could have SWORN that I didn't feel it when I first bought the car.

I have around 1500 miles on the car. (05 TL)

It could be just that I'm so used to driving my old car (civic). It could also be that I'm paranoid.

Its defiantely not the parking brake.

Am I being paranoid?

( I just put this in cause it looked funny)

 

I can't help with your problem, but I moved it back to Problems and Fixes.

 

forgot to add mines an automatic

 

Do feel a grinding/vibration with no noise hovering around 1600-1900 rpm? More noticeable when in 5th gear going up on a slight uphill while still in 1600-1900 rpm? I can feel mine through the gas pedal, floor boards, and a little on the steering wheel. When you are going downhill, it definately almost disappears. It's definately not the tires or road noise.

 

No mines not that bad. But its enough so that I can feel slight vibration in the pedal/floor.

No one knows if this is normal?

 

You might wanna look at this thread- sounds similar to what youre going through

 

Yes. 2005 TL AT NAVI. Noticed it when I drove it home with 25miles on it.
