Could be a few things really i suppose.. best just to have good look around the suspension ect. Knackerd shock absorbers, badly worn track rods. If youve swapped for decent wheels and tyres then it must be something along those lines i would have thought shakey front end Icon_biggrin

If it still does it when coasting when not in gear then i think that rules out the possiblily of gearbox shaking its self to peices shakey front end Lol

i imagine it would be very hard bending a drive shaft with out bending anything else

tracking some times causes shaking, my golf did when i took the assister springs out, and when my bro kinda sorted the tracking out its didnt shake as much. car was too low to get the tracking dead on.
