I Have A 94 Camry That Is Shakin' Me To Death When Accelerating. It Appears To Be Coming From The Passenger Side. I Have Changed The Cv Axle, Brake Pads, Control Arm Bushings, Had The Tires Rotated And Balanced, And Front End Alignment. I Do Have A Loose Rack And Pinion Bracket On The Driver Side ( Really I Think The Mount Is Broken ), Could This Cause The Shaking From 50 Mph And Higher. I Know This Is One Of The "duh" Questions, But It Has Over 200k Miles On It And I Want A New One. I Don't Want To Keep Spending Money On Things That Don't Work And I Only Need The Car To Last Me A Couple More Months. Is This The Rack And Pinion Or Transmission ? Also, When Going Down A Steep Hill The Car Will Coast Until A Certain Point And Begin To Shake Again Until I Add A Slight Bit Of Gas...too Much Will Cause The Shaking Again. If I Put It In Neutral, It Coasts Smooth With No Problem Whatsoever...can Someone Please Help, I'm Going Broke Trying To Save For A New Car, But I Have To Drive Today.

I had the same situation on a Corolla one time. Could have sworn the shake was from the passenger's side andd changed the passengers side CV joint....didn't fix the problem. Changed a bad transmission mount...didn't fix the problem. It turned out to be a bad driver's side CV joint. Sometimes it is very difficult to isolate which side is causing the vibration. I doubt the loose rack and pinion bracket is the cause of this problem.

Thanks

Thanks So Much For The Advice, This Has Been Stumping Me. I Will Change The Cv On The Left This Morning And If It Doesn't Fix It, I'll Change The Rear Struts. I Have Changed The Two Front Struts Last Year And Hardly Drove The Vehicle, So I'm Hoping That's Not The Problem, But I Have No Choice But To Try The Least Inexpensive One First....thanks Again.
