16V Transmission Troubles



Well.. it's very loud.. and its comming from underneath the car.. it seems
like when theres a lot of torque... thats when it's vibrating.. sometimes
the tach bounces around... i dunno maybe its my transmission mount...?!

First Post for me... uhm.. well here's the problem. a day or so ago my
transmission started to act up... starts out just fine... shifts just
fine.. when I hit 3000-3200 RPM all of a sudden there's this vibration i
dunno.. it's weird.. a quick shift into the next gear and then its gone...
until you reach 3-3.2k RPM in that gear...

I hope its something simple!


Any ideas?!

Chris,
  Welcome...  I personally think that this is not necessarily a tranny
problem.  Can you try to explain what the vibration is like?  If I were you,
I would see if you could not put it on a lift and let someone drive it and
see if you could not simulate the problem.  You can usually find things you
would not normally find if you were simulating a driving situation up on a
lift.  I know most cannot do this, but I offer it to you anyway.  You never
know...

Good Luck,
  David
