I just noticed a vibration under acceleration after lowering my car. I also have over 100,000 miles on my car. It feels to me like an alignment issue (haven't done it since the drop), but it is about time to start changing the mounts and bushings in this car.

now this definitely sounds like the rear inner cv joints.

swap em left to right/right to left!

I'm going to be replacing all of it anyway.

I will change out the CV's soon and let you guys know if that was the cause.

Thanks for the info, I'll update again soon.

I started a post on the same thing. does the vibration start after 30mph and only when on the gas? it then stops when you take your foot off the gas? it won't vibrate when it's in a corner. if your getting thses symptoms replace both inner cv joints.
