the car shakes when accelerating , I have CEL for EGR system, Both are plagueing me and i can`t find a source.

Car shakes when accelerating , worse around 80-90 then dies off over 100. , it feel all rear end . i changed the rear wheel bearings , and links. no change.

CEL for EGR system - by all accounts should have been a DPFE sensor , but i changed it and i still get the CEL for the same thing , Checked all voltages for EGR system and all come back fine. I can only think that it make my the actual EGR valve its self. But i am at a loss , kinda don`t want to throw money away on maybes , so if i can atain some help from local focus folk to make my life easier i would be appreciated.

Check the tire wear.

tire wear is fine. nothing that would cause the shakes i get . The shakes aren`t violent , and i don`t think the car will tear itself to pieces but it is bothering me that i can`t find a source.

Well it could be a number of things. did you check the motor mounts? Does it shake when youstart it up?

no , at idle and slowing down is fine , its accelerating , i thought the same , but hard to see that when the shakeing is coming from the rear end.

Shaking from the rear? It would either be wheel balance or wheel bearing.

Is it at a specific speed, or during acceleration at all times?

Acceleration all the time. Honestly if your local if you experienced it , it would be a whole lot easier to explain. The shakeing started before i got the rims and tires i have now , and continued after i had them balanced and installed. I also just replaced rear drums and bearings , and it is still doing the same. i also replaced the sway bar links. to no avail .

Edit: No saying that , just because it feels like its from the rear end doesn`t always mean it is from the rear end. I have experienced in the past when i worked in a shop , that sense of feeling can be a little deceitful
