    My cars is due to be sold tomorrow morning, only issue is I had FK AK shocks on the front, switched them to standard ones. Been running in a couple of days with the standard shocks everything seemed normal and now when I accelerate there is a horrible vibration coming from the front of the car, it stops if I turn left! Sorry its the wrong section but need some answers asap!
    Thanks in advance!

    CV Joint. Most likely inner CV joint.

    What side is the vibration coming from? Jack the car up and i bet you'll see greece sprayed up the underneith of your car

    Youve fucked a shaft, if it's vibrating under acceleration, it's really fucked.

    CV boots have just been changed! Last week or something, drive shafts both seem fine to be honest! Anything else it could be? tracking maybe?

    Not acceleration as such ,just when the cars moving fast! When its moving slowly its fine
