I currently own a 1998 Honda Accord with 125,000 miles on it.. The car used to drive like a dream, but within the last 5 months it has started to shake (more like vibrate) at between 40-50 mph.. Once you get past 50 mph it stops.. If I am accelerating from 35 to 70 (entrance ramp to highway speed limit) you can't feel the vibtation at all.. However, because I travel some back roads I am constantly set on the speed limits between 40 - 50 mph.. So, basically every 5 minutes or so it starts to shimmy again..
It has been to now 2 different mechanics and they are all completely confused.. In the last few months they have attempted to do front end alignment, replace the tires, balance the tires, replace the front links, put new struts, new front brakes, ensuring appropriate air pressure in all tires.. It's still doing it.. It makes absolutely no sense.. Has anyone ever heard of something like this?
