+1 on not being temp related.

Here are my Top 5 next places to look:

1. Tires - get them balanced while on the car and tell the tech that you're having a vibration problem so he can be careful to do a good job.

2. Suspension - possibly a bad bushing or something that is allowing a little free play to create a vibration.

3. Alignment - previous post had a great description of issues related to alignment.

4. Parking brake - inspect and adjust it so its completely loose and see if this helps.

5. CV Joints - check for wear/play.

Thanks Everyone for advice.

I'll be bringing it to my mechanic soon (again). First time he couldn't figure out what the hell is wrong with the car.

I'll show him the list of things to check.
