Why Acura TSX shakes when accelerating...

[@jeroen7699]

Nice job! 👍 I noticed a crack in the lower control arm bushing, where the strut fork is mounted. I have that bushing cracked too. Allignment guy said I should have that replaced, but the control arm is only one year old...

[@jsrebuilds3951]

A lot of stress on that bushing and since its rubber it going to wear out a lot faster. If your is a year old, I'm scratching my head on that one but if its worn out cracked and stuff then I could understand.

Thank you for your help I really appreciate it😁

[@jsrebuilds3951]

@@desmondmitchell5602 I'm not an expert, it might be the the axle but there could be other things causing it to shake as well. Things to check for are unbalance wheels and tires, warped rotors, motor mounts, etc.

[@M4V3RiCkU235]

Have the same annoying problem. It shakes like hell between 90-110 Km/h (55-65 mph). After I pass that point, I drove even with 200Km/h (120 mph) and no shakes/vibration at all. Some people only change the inner CV axle I guess, not the all axle.

[@jsrebuilds3951]

I hope you get your problem solved.

[@M4V3RiCkU235]

@@jsrebuilds3951 the problem is that I won`t wanna pay 700 euros for 2 axles +man hours. That will be ~1000 euros. All car if I`m gonna sell it, won`t be worth more than 3500 euros. So yeah, I`m looking for a good AM brand - but I don`t know which one.

[@jsrebuilds3951]

I'm not an expert Dumitrescu, but I can not tell you if the inner CV axle part is causing your shaking problem but I could tell from an experience I've had in the past. I've had an Integra and the outer boot had ripped so my cousin helped me replace the boot. So long story short was fast forward to the future, my Integra started to shake very harsh. So as I think back to the whole situation was that we were young and by replacing just the boot it saved me money but however we did not clean internals of the CV axle with contain the grease which lead me to believe that the dirt that got inside the CV axle cause the bearings to go bad. So basically I believe in general the bearings in the CV axle maybe the cause of the shake. But then again I am not expert or professional mechanic.

Mine TSX shake when it pick up speed. 55MPH up. Didn’t do that before.

[@jsrebuilds3951]

Check with basic things such as tire balance, warped rotors, etc. Have a professional mechanic look at your vehicle if you can't figure it out. I can't troubleshoot your issue because there are many things that could cause your vehicle to shake. Also I'm not a professional mechanic expert.

What tire size were you running on these waffles? Looks good

Lowering shortens your axles life span.

[@christorok1906]

Mine had been shaking under acceleration usually between 45 and 60 mph. Mine is now making a clicking noise too. Mine does sound like the drivers side as well, thought its hard to hear because thats where the diff is connected. It also makes the car pull to the left slightly.

[@benz9644]

Did you end up finding out what it was and fixing it? I’m dealing with the same

[@MR2SpyerJournal]

@@benz9644 yes. It ended up being the transmission. I got it replaced.

[@Yog_Los_Mas]

@@MR2SpyerJournal Wow seriously? Most of the time its just the axles or connections with the axles/bushing/suspension.. I sure hope you didnt get duped by an autoshop to replace the whole transmission.....

You ain’t had to take off lower ball joint fastener just upper control arm putter tie rod , brake/abs line and drop the fork apply pressure on the lca down to give you room

Hi I have the same issue. What is the part number for the CV axle? Thanks.

44306-SEA-N50 or 44306-SEA-N00

How much did this cost ?

[@jsrebuilds3951]

The prices vary but here is a video that I made to show people how to find OEM parts. These prices will be close to other OEM parts prices when your looking around. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2GsoKSlhNV5hdk

[@EXccord]

Also if you happen to buy INSANE SHAFTS.....good luck because your axles will shake even worse. Worst decision I ever made.

[@jsrebuilds3951]

Really? Thank you for info.

Update?

Its been running great.

What coil overs are you running?

[@MrSmokedout1234]

Kw v1 best coilover for tsx, highly recommend it, especially the tsx is a heavy car, don't buy ktuned or function form,I had those before there garbage. Kw are use on high end cars like porsche,BMW, and Mercedes.

[@FRUIT164]

@@MrSmokedout1234 ok thanks, what are your thoughts on tein Streets advances or a bilstien strut eibach spring combo?

[@MrSmokedout1234]

@@FRUIT164 tein are a good coilovers, bilstien I had them on my Toyota tundra trd off road they were bouncy but that on a truck, I'm not sure if they are good on smaller cars. Kw have a helper spring which make the ride like stock. Eibach I have the springs and ohlins struts on my itr they are also good.

[@FRUIT164]

@@MrSmokedout1234 thanks for the input, I'm leaning towards the Bilstein's because our roads in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada are terrible but the teins have the adjustability so I'm kind of torn.

[@isaiahw1995ify]

Can you explain the shaking?

[@jsrebuilds3951]

Upon acceleration the car starts to shake. You can feel it in the steering wheel.
