Question Sounds coming from shifter...

Right before the car shifts into any gear, i hear a rattling, then it disappears then comes back right before car shifts again. Do the bushings need to be replaced?

Another Question.
I had the a tie rod replaced and the lower ball joint on the right side. Ever since then it has a viberation that comes in 2 sec intervals. The vibe is not to bad but it is annoying and i want it gone. Any ideas?? 300d turbo

Ideally, ball joints, tie rods, bushings, bearings shoud all be replaced in pairs.

Where do you feel the vibration? Was the front end aligned after the repairs?

The vibration comes from the center console i think. And yeah it was aligned after.

Check the plastic transmission bushing under the car, I had a vibration that was driving me nuts, put in a new one, it's fine now.
I've replaced various front end components on just one side, no issues. Swap tires, see if the vibration moves.
