You don't need the super duper kit.

Not sure of the cost local to you, but shipping might not be very much....

Yep, with import fees and taxes price is gonna grow.:(

This one listed as zero taxes, import duties but not sure how they can know it for sure.

You could do it without the tool but you may as well do the guibo, center support bearing at the same time.

These days every shipment goes to customs outside europe in finland... And of course you have to pay. But gotta look if I could get from europe.

I have been dealing with this issue for a few years. Same thing as has been described -- car shaking a little while stopped in drive which goes away when the engine is unloaded by shifting to neutral.

Recently I was driving on the highway and got a check engine light with the car all of a sudden shuddering under acceleration, extremely lumpy idle, was able to get home fortunately and parked the car. The next morning the SES light was off and the car was back to normal. Codes revealed a cylinder 6 misfire.

I took the car to my indy and he said that compression check was OK with all cylinders at about 175 except for #1 at 150. He said he wasn't sure but thought that the ignition coil of #6 had a hiccup. The coils were 21 years old, car has 204,000 miles on it.

Long story short, all the coils were replaced and now the car idles completely smoothly in drive. So, it was malfunctioning coils all along, they just weren't bad enough to trigger a code.

I think that the ignition coils should probably be considered a routine maintenance items, like spark plugs, and replaced every 100,000 miles along with the plugs.

Mine developed the same idle shake a few months ago. The SES light set last week for a #3 misfire. Reset and it has gone away. New plugs and coils are going in this week. Mine also needs a front right shaft. The boot is in bad shape. It could tear apart any day. Luckily, I have all four shafts ready to go on. I'll report back which part fixes my vibration.
