Perhaps a possible problem, I might just be hallucinating..

Whenever I drive my car I look for anything that might be breaking.

Anyway, here's my problem, but maybe i'm just hallucinating I don't know.


Anyway, whenever I brake, right when my car is about to come to a complete stop, like 5 cm before to the point I come to a complete stop, I feel the SLIGHTEST SLIGHTEST SLIGHTEST vibration under my feet, sounds like it's coming from under the car. Maybe it was always like this, maybe I'm hallucinating.

Or maybe it's my squeeky brakes that are driving me nuts. Ever since I got these new brake pads they squeek like crazy!!! I took them back to the guy who put them in and he looked them over and said they're fine and they're brand new. My take: he put in cheap pads! i'll change them next summer.

hey EasySpeed you gotta lighten up man. If your car is going to break it will let you know all about it -- you won't be guessing.

If you think "what is breaking" everytime you take it for a drive you are GONNA DRIVE YOURSELF NUTS !

If your car has a shudder it can't be serious you were complaining of this months ago so let it go man.

my .02 cents worth,
RP.

My car shudders, vibrates, creaks and groans... that's a good sign for a thirdgen... when my car started driving smooth with no shudder then I worry lol. Seriously though, it actually did that when my TCC solenoid gave up.

Don't worry about your car, when something breaks it will do it in the most dramatic way possible.

For example, when I busted my 2.73 gears the clang sound from the rear was like the sound of a steel drop forge... It busted a few blocks from my house...
