A possibility is the motor/transaxle mounts are worn or sagging and that causes misalignment of the CV axles accounting for the noise and vibration. However, that is just one possible scenario. Vibration under acceleration could also be due to an engine operating issue. To resolve this, the recommended service is a vehicle vibration diagostic. If you request that service, the responding certified mechanic will get this problem investigated and resolved for you.

My ignition locked up after all my dash lights were blinking car wouldn't start now can't get ignition freed up.
There are a number of things that can cause your ignition to lock up. I am assuming you are speaking of the ignition lock cylinder (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-ignition-lock-cylinder) which is what the key inserts into. The easy one is to turn the...

How low can my truck legally be like how high off the ground?
I have never heard of a legal limit for how low a vehicle can be (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-lower-a-vehicle-s-suspension-by-ed-ruelas). I would not recommend going below 6 inches for the lowest part of the suspension or you will not be able to go over...
I got code P0016 and P0008. I just want to know what caused the problem and which one is bank 1 sensor A?

Check Engine Light was on with a gas smell. I took it to the dealer.
I would ask what codes they found and how they determined the fuel pump was the cause. They likely diagnosed the pump by measuring fuel pressure. You didn't say what kind of Hyundai you have, but generally, fuel pressure should...
Rough idle and SEL is flashing. I've replaced all 6 plugs and coil packs. The car still has a rough idle and no power.
Misfiring can be caused by lack of spark or lack of fuel. If the same cylinders are still showing codes for misfiring after replacing the coils, the problem can lie elsewhere. If it is the coils not firing, there can...
Cruise control has not been working for a while.
Hi there. First check to see if the cruise control fuse is blown. Then check the brake light switch (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/brake-light-switch-replacement), the brake pressure switch, the speed sensor on the transmission (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/speed-sensor-replacement), or the cruise control buttons. Most of the time...
When heat is on outside air, exhaust smell. Not when circulating air. Worse when standing behind other cars.
Hello, thank you for writing in. The vehicle is designed to pull in the air in from around the vehicle to use in heating the air. When on that setting, the engine is pulling in exhaust fumes. This means that...
