Yup, but he was not able to do it today because of snow.

There is only so much we can help here, a Diagnostic is the best way to rule anything out.

Thanks you all! And yes I have an appointment for a diagnostic run with Gary Crossley Ford next Wednesday (hopefully free). Just hoping it doesn't snow anytime soon otherwise I'll have to end up postponing again, and I'm pretty impatient when it comes to cars.

Found out it was the harmonic balancer, don't know why I didn't think about it before.. anyways my harmonic balancer slipped so I ordered a new one and will have it in Monday. I miss driving my mustang.. and lucky me its supposed to snow the day I get it back. This winter has been a pain in the ***.

Harmonic balancer is in but apparently its something wrong with the balance shaft... so now I'm worried since that'll be more costly to fix. Anyone got an estimate how much it'll cost to replace that?
