I took my car in to get my snow tires mounted yesterday, I went with a set of Pirelli Sottozeros based on reviews that these are more of a "high performance" snow tire, and the fact that they weren't horribly expensive. I also had them install my driveshaft coupler while it was there. I picked up the car and took it for a nice run following my boss who drives pretty fast, we went on some nice back roads and the tires felt pretty good, not too noisy, felt ok in the corners but they're brand new so I wasn't pushing hard. The new coupler seemed fine, reduced the clunk a bit as expected but not overly noticeable. Overall it felt like it was running great, smooth, no issues.
This morning I drove to work and got a strong vibration in 3rd that went away at 30mph. It was creepy, the shifter was vibrating badly and when I hit the clutch it was still there. I was worried but drove the rest of the way there, found that I could drive through the problem and it would go away. Then when I left for lunch it seemed like it was gone, at least nowhere near as bad. Driving back to the office it's back but also not as bad. It's cold today (20ish), the car sleeps in my garage and sits in the parking lot at work.
Recently I've had a tune up, plugs, wires, oil, trans fluid, clutch fluid, diff oil. Any thoughts on what it could be? There is no grinding, no squealing or anything, and it never happened before. It only occurs from maybe 20-30mph, and as I said it's off and on. I'll drive around a bit after work and let it warm up, drive to work is only 5 minutes.
