went to test drive a williams today and when accelerating the entire front end wobbled and sort of vibrated. i am certain it is not to do with wheel balance or a buckled wheel so am i right in thinking its an engine mount or cv joint??

also this happened in every gear when hard accelerating
if its only when accelerating then id say most likely a cv joint or the inner bearing set up on the n/s shaft( 3 bearing thing) i had one missing yonks ago and it wobbled like hell when accelerating!

I agree with richy but the one i saw was the offside.

i got the same problem - am in the process of getting both near and off side driveshafts /cv joints replaced.
Unbalanced Torque application on heavy acceleration causes the shake / wobble / vibrations.
At least this the prob on my car :D

had same problem with my old 16v, was inner cv joint on the o/s drive shaft (the long one) new drive shaft from Renault was less than 70quid including vat 8)
