Hi,

The screech has me a bit confused. Is it loud enough for you to record and upload for me to hear?

As far as the vibration, that could be caused by a faulty universal joint. Take a look through this link. It explains how to check one.

Let me know if the vibration started all at once. Also, if you can record the noise, it will likely help me.

Take care,

Joe
