Hey Nick,
I have an easy fix for you and it won't cost you a dime out of your pocket. Simply don't go over 70 mph, and you won't feel it.
Do you feel the vibration in the steering wheel, or do you feel it more in the seat?
If it's in the steering wheel, then it's probably in the frontend.
If you feel it more in the seat, then it could be the driveshaft, or rearend, ect. I would also have the wheels checked out just in case one of the wheel weights fell off.
I'm sure someone else will think of other possibilites, but this is a start.
Good luck!2013 Stage II Nickey Camaro Convertible #10

Does it go away above 75/80? Could be wheel balance, belt seperation in one of the tires.Eastern Michigan Camaro Club - President

engine mounts.
put the car in Drive or Reverse
pop the hood.
brake torque it very slowly add more gas and watch for the engine twisting.
obviously will need 2 people to do this.
mine twisted so bad the exhaust would hit part of the frame. (old 98 ls1)Last edited by b.lee; June 21st, 2007, 08:50 AM.sigpic

I had a vibration for a little while, it was because the U-Joint on the driveshaft was not centered in the yoke. Loosened the two clamps on the rear diff that hold the shaft on and centered it and it was gone.Comment
