Vibration Issues
95 Acura Legend 3.2L AUTO 205,xxx miles.
-When car is first started in the morning and shifted into Reverse the entire car starts shaking.
-Does not do it once shifted into drive, or after the cars been driven enough to warm everything up.
-I also noticed it shook after a long (50+ Mi.) drive under acceleration at highway speeds, but stopped whenever I was coasting.
-Doesn't do it in Park, or at idle in Drive, so I'm guessing it's not any mounts. But it is a possibility?
My guess is CV joints, just because of the mileage. Although when making an "S" manuever loading each individual axle there's no clicking noise. Boots are not torn either. I don't have anywhere to work on it at my apt. but i can throw it on a hoist at school if need be to investigate further. Any ideas?

Check the transmission fluid, and engine mounts.

Old Japanese cars develop weird vibrations when the mounts wear out.

honestly it probably needs it, but I'm weary of doing a flush on such a high mileage car I've heard horror stories.

The dude abides

My grandma has a 96' infiniti g20, similar problem. She claims it happened, or she only noticed it, right after a rebuilt A/C clutch was installed. If that part wasn't 100%, could that also cause this vibration?
Just wondering.
