Between about 38 and 45 MPH my car seems to shimmy back and forth. When I say shimmy I mean the car seems to sort of hop forward and backward a little bit. Almost like a gear is slipping or something like that. If I have a bottled water sitting in the holder, I can see the liquid sloshing forward and backward. It seems to be okay at other speeds. Any ideas? It is a 99' SE Sport with 37,000 miles and ATX. Luckily I have a Ford "Premium Care" ESP that should cover any problems that I may have. "Cobb - It's not just for corn anymore!"

Anyone else out there think they can help? I feel your pain, though - it's REALLY annoying. Travis Corley '96 Zetec CTA Motorsports Aluminum Intake
