Long time browser, first time poster. Please help! I decided to help my grandmother by offering to do the timing/balancer belt change with both tensioners and a new water pump. I also replaced the valve cover gasket/grommet/spark seals, and drained and filled about 2 2/3 quart of the ATF.
Now, after I start the car, I am getting some very loud and strong vibrations only at certain times. It is most strong in reverse, almost undrivable. In neutral and park it is pretty bad. Then in d4,d3,2,1 it seems to go away and run fine. But if i get up to speed, even in drive it will shudder when slowing at a stop sign then go away once stopped.
Is it something to do with the timing, balancer belt, one of the accessory belts, or even the new ATF? This is time critical bc my grandmother is 93 and I don't want to put her in a dangerous vehicle and she is currently without transportation. Thank you very much for your help!
