problem with my car
How many miles on your car, and what mods?
In the order that I'd check them:
1) Check rear tires for low air pressure or damage
2) Grab a rear tire and shake the wheel to see if there is any side-to-side play. This could indicate loose alignment bolts on the tie rod or a bad wheel bearing
3) Look at the rear shocks to see if there is any obvious oil leaking from them. If so, replace the bad shock.
4) in a parking lot, drive in slow figure-8's and see if you can reproduce the vibration. Does it depend on direction? If so, it indicates a possible wheel bearing, diff, or CV
5) Replace rear diff fluid -- not that the fluid change would help, but draining it will let you look for any large chunks of metal
6) Replace inboard CV joints, or swap the inboard 'cups' side-to-side.

You're sucha racist...why's it gotta be Mexican food?

Actually, I'm quite fond of Mexicans. Or, at least, I appreciate their work ethic and their fine cuisine.

I still don't like Cubans. Or, at least the one that I've met.
