i dont know if this right forum but just a little question. Ive had my celica since june, but about two months after i started noticing a little shaking in the steering wheel. I had the fronts balanced and the rest of the stuff checked. It was a little better for a awhile. Then it came back. so anyway i had to rotate my tires, did that and it helped a lot for like two weeks. now it starting to come back again, its better sometimes and worse others. And not always on rough road and smooth road too. So any info about past experiences would help. thanks guys

ok, i had my car shaking at certain speed for about 2 month. I changed tires, did the alignment but nothing helped. And it only was shaking when i was accelerating. Honestly i didnt know what to do next. Then someone posted an idea about checking the drive axles. I knew that i have to get my cv boots changed. so, i decided to get two new axles. After installation i dodnt have any shaking or anything like that.
So, if your car shakes when you accelerate, then get your axles checked.
