Yaris - Wobble/Vibration... Help?

[ex-x-fire]

Probably a bad cv axle. Get the front tires safely off the ground, put the car in gear and get it up to 50 mph and lightly press on the brakes to load the axles. Does it shake? If yes then look to see if the engine/trans are moving side to side when its vibrating. That indicates that the inner cv joint is binding.

I appreciate the response. No vibration during breaking on highway speeds.... Only vibration/wobbles during acceleration.

Also, going from Park to Drive or Reverse... the gear change isn't 100%. It's a little abrupt and maybe a clang.
