190e shudder

Hi-my '85 190e has developed a strange problem: At 40 mph the car starts to shudder noticeably. It goes away around 50mph, but comes back at 60+mph. I've changed rims and tires on all 4 wheels, hoping the shuddering was caused by them, but that wasn't the cause. I just had a valve job/timing chain replacement done recently; could that be the cause? Thanks in advance for any help.

190e shudder

A good place to start would be to get the car on a lift and inspect the suspension, motor mounts, etc.</P>

Got the car on a lift, found out it was the driveshaft mount. All is well for now!<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0">
