I unsure of the problem may be with my fox, but here is a description of what is going on and, I was hoping you guys could give me some ideas:
So I have noticed something is wrong with the car for a couple of weeks now, but the problem seems to be getting worse and worse.
* When I am driving, speeding up, the stick shift vibrates pretty bad, worse than ever.
* When I am coming to a stop, slowing down, SOMETIMES the steering wheel shakes like crazy. (Not sure if related)
* When slowing down, I can hear a lot of noise coming from under the car, like the drive shaft slowing down, but super loud or something in the transmission.
* I have also discovered a new "feature", if you will: when I downshift and let off the clutch the RPMs jump, then I push the clutch back in the RPMs drop close to 0 or sometimes it hits 0 and stalls the motor.
* Also when taking off, I have to give way more gas than I should, or else the engine will stall.
* The car is also very sluggish compared to when I first got it.
Any ideas on what I should take a look at or replace would be awesome, I have heard several things over the last couple of weeks that it may be, like:
* Bad U-Joints
* Out of balanced tires
* Something with the transmission
* Bad EGR valve
* Clogged Catalytic Converters
Thanks a ton,
James.
