Hi guys just noticed I’m past couple of days that when slowing down to a stop or reversing on my drive (mix of tick over crawl and brakes) I get a slight viberation nothing to bad, other half can’t feel it but I’m stuck as to what could it be,
I first thought gearbox mines an auto and out of interest did stall test which was 2500 which according to rave is lower than the ideal 2600 but says at hotter temps than 20deg c then number will be lower, I’d just been out so everything was hot an temperature was 25 here. So could it be box? But then I thought warped or starting to warp discs as fronts were warped once before but felt worse than this (not touched rears yet), the feeling I get is slight vibration or lack of power, that feeling you get when it’s about to stall but picks up but only slight, however engine pulls well and from watching revs when it does it they stay at usual revs no fluctuations. The other thing I noticed is when parked on a steep hill but had to go into reverse unless power applied car started to crawl forward is this normal? Some say so even for torque converter auto saying if hill is too steep for engines idle power.
Anyway know it’s a round about way to explain it but any help or suggestions would be welcome, I’m also thinking fuel pump but that could do with changing as it’s some random make, been in way before I got car and the track on the float arm has worn off half way so unless tank is full readings are all over the place.
Iv also done egr removal and removed egr solenoids and since then brakes do feel better so is it something to do with that? Car changes gear well, locks up in3/4 at about 45-47 in 3rd and 50/54 in 4th, kicks down when booted etc so bit stuck here.
Any help is welcome. Thanks Rich.
 
Had it jacked up this evening and all wheels turn freely, I did take it out and driving forward doesn’t seem a issue as such but reversing say 40 ft does feel like a shudder.
