    Hi....welcome to the Forum

     

    It does sound more like a drivetrain issue as it occurs when under load when going up hills.
    If it was a dynamic imbalance then it would do it on flat roads without being under load.

    I would think it may be more like a Dual Mass Flywheel failing but you should hear it clunking when switching the engine off which is a sign its on its way out

     

    Hi Trevor, thanks for the reply.

     

    It still does shake/vibrate even on flat road with anything over half acceleration starting around the 45/50mph mark, just a bit more noticeable when going up some type of incline, when I'm not accelerating the shaking/vibration disappears, and returns as soon as i touch the throttle.

     

    I've heard no clunking when turning the engine off.

  2. Hi everyone, new to the forum.

     

    I have an 09 2.4i Accord Manual which I've owned nearing 3 years now, and have loved the car, really fun, great engine.

     

    For a good few months now its developed a horrible shaking/vibration when accelerating past 45-50mph, more noticeable going up any type of hill, its really horrible when I look at the passenger seat to see it shaking.

     

    In the last few months, it's had 4 wheel alignment done, recently noticed the driver side wheel was missing its weights so thought that might have been the culprit, turned out I needed new front tyres anyway so had them changed and still the vibrating/shaking continues.

     

    I've had a look around other forums to see what my issue could be, and I think it was on some type of Acura forum which suggested driveshafts are a common issue on these cars, Anyone had this issue? It seems driveshafts are not a thing I can buy from a motor factors for the 8th gen cars, but easily buyable for the 7th gen cars, so i'm a bit stuck at the moment.

     

    Cheers in advance.
