I thing my transmission is going out, when I get on the throttle hard it has torque steer bad. My car weaves around more than usual. I checked the ball joints and tie rods, there fine. I did notice alittle fluid around the CV shaft seal on the drivers side. I also notice when driving at a steady speed it will get a feeling like it has a load. (slow down) then speed up a little.
Maybe a wheel bearing? It doesnt make any noise.
Don't know what it is? Any input.

new rims by any chance. if you changed the off set it more positive, it will pull and follow ruts like a banshee!!!! and if it feels as if its loading and unloading....hmmmm, try putting it in 5 or 6 gear at 60 mph get a steady speed and then floor it, if the rpm clime and you dont speed up like you should, its the clutch sliping. another thing to check is the hanger bearing for binding, and also check the driver side trans mount, its under the air box, if you see that the bolts has sliped around( youll see were the pain has rubbed off) . if you want, bring it to me and ill scann it to figure out whats going on, if i need to come to you then im sorry but i need at least 15 bucks for gas( see this is why i charge!!!! money) you come to me and we will fingure it out. 8)

It has the same tires and rims. I have an agressive aliment and know how its suppost to drive. So thats not it. If you could swing by the North meet (MNSC) today that would be awsome!! Can you program/tune my car too?
