Wilkin250r, why are you dredging up an issue you had when you posted your comment and all of the discussions you are having here, were already addressed there?

Am I correct in assuming the transmission HAS to be part of the problem? Exactly like you said, Keith, amplitudes adding (in phase) or canceling (out of phase). With a driveline imbalance or u-joint, it would be a constant vibration. It wouldn't fade in and out because there is nothing to change. The planetary gears in the transmission are the only thing I can think that would allow two similar vibrations to fade in and out of phase with each other, so one of the vibrations HAS to be in the transmission. Yes?
(Actually, as I type this, I suppose the ring/pinion gears could also allow two vibrations to add/cancel each other)

For shame, for shame. Shame on you.
You should be reported to the board administrators.
