vibration on the rear passenger side
I have a slight vibration on the rear passenger side of the car when i drive. Its not the Tranny cause it shifts and responds great. I had just serviced my rear diff changing the fluid. Could this be due to the bushings, or wheel bearings? Or could it be the drive shaft bushing? Something else ?
All help is appreciated

Here's something I pulled out of the FAQ that I'm compiling. Seems that removing a metal plate solves some vibrating noise and makes the base louder.
Enough talking... here's the link

i would live with little rattles and squeeks rather than risk harm in event of crash. Nowhere on that post does it say that it gets "RID" of rattles and squeeks. Everyone who said anything about it said that it reduced it. Nothing about eliminating the rattle or squeeks.
In my case I had some squeeks and rattles... almost metalic in nature....
solution was
there are square brackets on the rear deck, 2 of them one on each side right in between the sub and the rear speakers... one of them had fallen off and it was wedged between the gas tank and the rear firewall. They snap back on. I didn't find it the 1st of the 2nd time i looked, but found it the 3rd time(it had moved around apparently)
Please go and reread the post before replying to THIS one. not picking a fight. Just wanted to let you know I read it right the first time

. My bad about saying it got "rid" of the squeeks and rattles when I should have said "reduced" the squeeks and rattles. And i'm not trying to start a fight either... that's why CL is so much better than supraforums
