Hey all, need some opinions here... Vehicle at hand is a 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T, 6-spd.. Last week out of nowhere something weird started happening.
Issue: Low RPM in any gear from 3-6... under acceleration (not even hammering on it) the tires feel like they are skipping and I get some shudder out of the rear end. The only way I can explain it to anyone is it feels as if I am driving over the grooves that let you know you are on the shoulder. If I let off the pedal and then give it a light foot, it's fine.
Note: Tires are brand spanking new- I replaced them because they were old and when this started happening, I thought it could have been a loss of traction given the low tread depth.
I am open to all comments/suggestions- I am not quite sure where to begin at this point.
