I have a Question regardining my AP1...

First of all NO CEL
The car starts fine, and shows a clean idle at 800rpms

However when i drive, it feals like i am driving over small speed bumps. it's wierd. This only happens when i am accelerating, and it disapears after i let off the accelerator. I have not a clue what it could be.

I have checked:
-all the bolts on my struts- i thought something might be loose.
-my tires - ok, no rubbing
-motormounts - ok
-spark plugs - gap was a bit off

Any ideas?
Could it be fuel problem? FYI My ignition was recently replace at honda due to bad alarm.

sometimes its not the axles, but the Antilock rings on the ends of the axles. had this problem on a 93 GSR a long while back. changed out everything and when we did the axles, the antilock ring was loose.

Same thing happens with my car. I'm wondering if it's my tires or what. Maybe it is my rear axles. I'll take it in to get serviced.

It's probably the cv cups. The bearings tend to wear grooves into the cups causting vibration only on accelleration usually more on lowered cars. I had this problem before and swapped the cv cups left to right and the problem went away.

My car is certified pre-owned, but I am lowered on springs, you think they will still honor my warranty? I have more than 60kmiles left under my powertrain warranty.
