Why does my Volvo XC make a vibration when I accelerate?
Why does my Volvo XC make a vibration when I accelerate?
This doesn’t feel like that time. Worn drive axles will cause vibration under acceleration as well. If yours are original, then that could be the cause. Mine were vibrating at 100k and slowly got worse until I replaced them at 128k. I first started noticing it, like you, when accelerating at near highway speeds.
Why does my Volvo XC have a shudder?
The problem persisted, though sporadically, and other mounts were fine. Searched the threads some more and thought it could be bad ignition coils/plugs or the passenger side drive axle. Looked at the axle and inner CV boot was damaged and a lot of grease had leaked out. There was play in the axle when yanked on by hand.
When do you feel the shudder in your car?
The shudder vibration may be noticed mostly during light throttle acceleration of 30-64 mph (48-104 km/h) during steady state driving with the transmission not actively shifting gears. It also may feel like driving over rough pavement or rumble strips.
How can I tell if my torque converter has a shudder?
To confirm TCC shudder, the vibration concern must be present in normal operation, but not present with the torque converter clutch disabled or with the torque converter clutch locked. Also perform a TCC slip control test. If TCC shudder is present, a vibration peak will appear at approximately 43Hz +/-3Hz. (Fig.

What makes a torque converter shudder at low speed?
Torque Converter Shudder Problems. A torque converter is the fluid coupling between an engine and transmission that allows the engine to idle at low speed without engaging the transmission. A torque converter uses an engine-driven turbine (fan) to push fluid through a matching turbine attached to the transmission.
Why does my car shudder when in overdrive?
Transmission shudders seem worse than they actually are. Shudders occur most often when shifting into overdrive or when in overdrive and going up a slight incline. This occurs because the transmission fluid is contaminated and the contaminates, being suspended in the fluid, prohibit good pressure contact between…
What does it mean when your car vibrates when you accelerate?
You have probably experienced a car shaking when accelerating. Different vibrations will mean different things. And you should know this by now. No good news should be expected when your vehicle starts to vibrate. It does not matter if the vibrations come after you accelerate, while in motion, or if the car is idle.
