I never learn my lessons so...I am on my second manual GT (first a 2021 and now a 2023) that has the same driveline vibration (55mph to 75 mph, steering shimmy and slight vibration that is non tire/wheel related).
Since Ford dealers call it "within spec" and dismiss it, I have contacted a local shop in Houston that can make a custom, one piece driveshaft that they claim will fix the problem.
Having read so much about one-piece driveshafts actually increasing vibrations and noise and also considering that the issue in these cars many not necessarily be the two-piece driveshaft itself, I am at a loss on how to proceed.
What should I do?
Try my luck with a custom driveshaft?
Ignore the minor vibration and shimmy?
Get Ford Corp. involved? (I really don't have time for all that)
...or trade it in and curse my bad luck for buying two $45K vibrators in a row?
Thanks guys...
