Sounds like a bad spark plug, spark plug wire. Probably the spark plug wire. They usually act that way when load is applied. It may misfire under light load and not at idle. Try plugs and wires.

SOURCE: front end vibration

It sounds as though your car has two seperate problems. The first problem with the vibration that goes away when you let off the gas pedal is caused by a bad INNER CV joint. It only vibrates when you are accelerating because that is when the joint is under stress. Your vehicle has two axles, each with an inner and an outer joint. My suggestion is to have a competent shop determine which is the bad side and replace the entire axle. The second vibration which occurs at any speed is most likely cause by either a bad tire, or a bent rim.

SOURCE: vibration at 45 mph.

first, if the milage is high it could be a cv halfshaft even if the boots are not split. if the tires are new and no rims are bent, make sure there is no fix -a- flat in the tires, (liquid will not balance) and cause a severe vibration. i would suggest you take it back to your shop and have them put it on a lift, raise up the front wheels under the outer part of the lower control arm where the front is not hanging down too far and start the vehicle. run it up to 45mph to 60mph and have them feel in the drivetrain for vibrations and shakes.if it is felt with the car this way the vibration is in the drivtrain. inner cv's or in the transmission. thanks and let me know what you find out.

SOURCE: front end vibration

To build upon what emissionwiz posted, the inner boot on the drivers side axle on the Grand Prix's seems susceptible to tearing. If this is the case you will see a greenish looking grease slug everywhere, even up on the bottom side of the hood.

I will second also that the CV joint can cause the vibration you speak of having personally experienced it in a Grand Prix.

Vibration

It absolutely can be, but anyway you should hear that noise when accelerating the engine from idle dont need to drive, just press gas pedal from idle and if there is a strange noise in exhaust then the honeycomb will be loose

My 98 mercedes e320 vibrates when on idle

If the vibration is felt especially when you put the car in drive or when in park if you goose the gas pedal and you feel the whole car vibrate then look to replace the transmission mount. When they weak you can feel a vibration through out the whole car especially when in drive.

Vibration

Is the engine light on? If not, It'probly time for an idle air control valve. Also check the motor mounts. Put the car in drive, hold the brake and give it some gas. Do the same thing in reverse. If the motor moves more than a few inches, you may have a broke motor mount.(you watch the motor, let a friend work the gas)

96 GC Orvis-Severe vibration in Idle.

Before you go changing the idle motor, clean the throttle body out with a spray cleaner and make sure you get into the idle speed motor orifice. Spray the cleaner into the throttle body with the engine off, do'nt be afraid to use it all then let it sit awhile. When you try to start the car it might not want to start, just keep your foot all the way down on the gas pedal and as it starts and clears up just release the pedal slowly. If the car smokes out of the exhaust, thats normal. Hope this works.
