Not sure what is causing it. It seems to shake the worse when I am accelerating going up a hill. Usually between 40mph ~ 60mph. I will make a video and post it on YouTube if that would be helpful…

Bad driveshaft u-joints.

The most likely cause is either non balanced tire or the tire is separating. My money is on the balance. I used to work for a tire store and that was usually the cause. It is fairly cheap to have corrected too. Those lead weights come off all the time.

+1 on the driveshaft. My accord started doing the same thing after replacing one of the original half shafts with an aftermarket part.

That sounds like motor mount failure, in my opinion. Tranny mount failure…!?

If it’s shaking under acceleration I’d check the ignition system. Ignition problems often show up under load as a vibration during acceleration. Make sure you’re using either NGK or Nippon Denso plugs. You might also want to do a power balance test to see if you have a problem cylinder(s).
