    Hello all,

    I recently (less than 100 miles) replaced u joints and carrier bearing as I had a very noticeable driveline vibration around 30-35mph then again from 65-70mph. Though it improved slightly it is back to the original issue. It is only felt under acceleration, immediately after letting off gas it goes away. Any help would be awesome!

    Thanks in advanced

    I had the same problem with my 09 a few years ago. It was still under warranty so I took it in and they replaced the shaft. I'm not sure if it was just faulty U joints or the shaft itself. However, once replaced the vibrations went away.

    Did they replace the whole shaft or just a section of it?

    Did you 'mark' the driveshaft before replacing the ujoint?

    If you don't get the driveshaft back in the exact placement (ear to ear), can create vibes.
