asked by on March 14, 2017

Hi Lucas, I drive a suzuki alto 2009 model. Its been about 2-3weeks now that i've changed my tyres.My car just recently started having this vibrating problem which i could feel when i start the engine. i could feel the vibration from the speed pedal & when i turn on the air-con engine stops as if i have stopped to park. Other times it would start but when i press the speed pedal the car doesn't pick up speed as soon as..it does pick up but really slowly i.e i can't feel any force behind the pedal(& i have pressed the pedal to the floor) . I have just changed the brake pads & have yet to do wheel alignment.Could you help me understand what's happening?
My car has an automatic transmission.
