Whenever I'm on the freeway or going more than 60mph, my car starts to shake a lot when I hold the clutch in to slow down. When I hit the gas it seems fine but whenever the clutch is in or I am slowing down it starts to do this shaking. Anyone know what is wrong?

Do any of these things cost a lot to repair?

They are easy repairs. Do it yourself and save some money. Get a Haynes or Chiltons repair manual to have on the side incase you may need it.

Is this something that I have time to get fixed or does it need to be done right away?
