I have had a 96 Mark VIII for about a year now, and I have just bought a 97. I have been reading about the drive shaft issues. My 96 has a vibration that you can feel in the steering wheel and as you get to higher speeds, 80+ you can see the rear view mirror vibrate and even hear the vibration. To me this could be the drive shaft. Now on the 97, the steering wheel doesn't necessarily have a vibration, but it shakes or pulsates, and starts doing it at lower speeds, 45 and up. It seems to come and go, and is sometime mild to sever, at different times that I drive it. Would the drive shaft cause these conditions also? With the shaking wheel, I thought about rotors, but braking doesn't seem to make it worse. Thanks for any advise.
