[Shop-talk] Honda car question

[eric at megageek.com]

OK, let me start by saying, I do NOT know what is causing this.

But that never stopped me from giving an opinion!  8>)

First, I would think of a motor/tranny mount.  They are a pain to check 
for since I have seen them 'look' fine when the engine isn't under load.

Next, balancing the tires was a good idea, but a quick check is to rotate 
them.  (Fronts to rear, crossing sides.)  Then a quick ride.  Here is my 
thinking on this...

When the car is accelerating, weight is lifted off the front tires.  It is 
possible that a misbalanced wheel could be exacerbated under these 
conditions.

Next is the front wheel alinement.  Same thinking as above, but rotating 
tires will not identify this as a problem.  Check the tires for any uneven 
wear.

Can you read the codes from the OBDCII?  Do you have a lift?  These are 
the next two things I would dig into if I couldn't get anywhere with the 
above steps.

Make sure you post the answer once it's found, I know I want to know what 
it turns out to be.

If you are near NJ, the Garage M'hal is always open for business for 
stoptalkers (and their friends.)

This weekend's project here is getting the new compressor wired and 
installed.  (Not a small feat.) So I'm here all weekend.
