Torque tube or transmission issues?
Hello all,
I have a 2004 corvette (Automatic tranny) with 104k miles. I bought it with 99k and ever since I’ve owned it the car has a pretty hard vibration over 3000 rpm’s, it also has a weird rattle noise that almost sounds like a tin can getting thrown around. The vibration feels like it’s coming from underneath the front to the center of the car, hard to say. It also is now having problem shifting under medium-hard acceleration, it basically stutters and will rev up then take a second or two to switch gears. Also whenever I drive it uphills it always seems to struggle accelerating. Please give any advice if I should rebuild my torque tube or if this is transmission issues. Thank you all
