Hi i have a 1997 audi A4 2.8 quattro manual and im having troubles figuring out whats wrong with my car. Just recently it start to act up im feeling Vibrations as i rest the car in gear and cruise normal,, however if i accelerate it goes away slightly.

Note: i have just change both suspension in the rear also my back brakes the slide for the brake tends to sees up when i leave the ebrake on for a long time im in the process of lubing and cleaning it.

Would appreciation some comment i miss how it use to ride so smooth

I would check the front inner c/v joints for any wear. Just remember even if the boots are in good shape the joints can be worn.

Is the vibration coming from the back or the front?
Do you feel it it your hands or your back side?
