When accelerating, car actually rumbles (shudders) like when you go over rumblestrips on the shoulder. Just had new tires put on front, still does it..does it at 40mph, then sometimes around 60...usually when its changing gears or speeds

    It rumbles all over, it is a physical rumble, not just a sound. I feel it in the seat but it is coming from the front.

    Hi can you tell where the rumble is at the front or back? and does the car shake in the seat

Look into changing the U-Joints on the drive shaft. You may also have a bad tansmission mount and maybe the motor mounts are bad.

I have a rumbling noise in the front end of a 2006 Yukon Denali. it only does it when accelerating. what is the fix?

Can be many things. Check the cv joints first- will make sharp clicking noise especially when turning. Wheel bearing but it will be all the time and noise will increase with speed. Control arm bushes - shudder and noise when accelerating or when driving on road with an slight incline (up hill). If nothing obvious found take the car to an suspension specialist for evaluation and quote.

Noise coming from the right half-shaft inside the transaxle

could be the wheel bearing, first check to see if the belts have shifte in tires, feel the sidewalls of tire for a buldge, also secondly switch front tire with back tire, could be the rim... if noise transfers to back then its rim..

Why do i get ashuder on my polo 07 model 1.4i or not stable on rd i put new ball joints tierod ends rack ends thanx regards sam naidoo.

I shouldn't think an 07 model would have enough wear on the front suspension components to cause the type of problems you describe, unless you sustained damage in an accident or drive in rough terrain. I would suspect one or more bad tires or misalignment. Worn struts could be part of the problem. If the shudder you describe is in the front end, rotate your tires front to back and see if the shudder moves to the rear. If it does, then it's most likely bad tires.

take your car to a brake shop and have the rotors turned if your vibration and shuddering is occurring when you actually apply the brakes.

Shudders(shakes) at about 60mph

You may have worn out CV joints on the front wheel drive axles, they vibrate/shudder badly if they are really worn out.
