S2000 vibration when decelerating

2001 S2000 vibrates very pronounced at low speeds, 45 MPH or lower, only does this when declerating, no noise or vibration when accelerating or at cruising speed. No bad mounts, CV joints or exhaust problems of any kind. Have been told it is normal clutch buzz but seems to be much to excessive for that.

Clutch would show different ugly symptoms - it is definately a warped/warn rotor and/or brake pads from high speed deceleration or "riding the brakes".

Fairly easy to fix, probably 2-3 hours of work for each corner

Driving between 35-50 mile ph truck will start vibrating

There are many stages of vibration. The most common is in the steering and USUALLY a steering dampner will correct this. However, your description is not real defined and until the technician actually experiences it, it cannot be properly diagnosed

2001 Blazer has vibration, Can feel vibration through the steering coulmn and floor boards. Sounds more pronounced on drivers side of car. Sounds less when making right turns. No noise when standing still....

You didn't say whether your blazer is a 2wd, 4wd, or awd. It sounds like you have a bad wheel bearing. If it's an all wheel drive, it could be the CV joint. You should also check for loose lug nuts and low tire pressure.

Strange "scraping" noise as car decelerates toward a stop

speed sensitive issue could more likely be a loose heat shield on the exhaust system. this would change with speed and heat. check hangers and connecters on exhaust, I've come across a muffler clamp that set up quite a rattle as it vibrated around the ex. pipe. could be a bent dust shield on one of the disc brakes that is rubbing on the rotor but would likely change with steering direction. take off and check the belt pulleys and idlers for a loose bearing assembly.

Is there any "clunking" when going from f to reverse? drive train joints could be responsible, and they would be sensitive to power up or deceleration differences. usually more of a vibration and not a loud noise however.

Vibration in 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 (YES, this is a double post)

Could be u-joints. My wife's Pathfinder developed a vibration at highway speeds. A little research revealed the front driveshaft u-joints bearings would begin to fail causing some play. Took it in to have them inspected and sure enough- the little needle bearings were grinding down to dust. Replaced with greesable units and vibration is gone.
Certainly worth checking out.
