Default 2002 Honda Accord LX 4cyl automatic HELP!!!!!

Ok I hope someone can help me finding out whats going on with this car.

Its a 2002 Honda Accord LX with a 4cyl and its an automatic. with 202,000 miles.
When I take off from a dead stop and get up to about 15 to 20 mph there's a vibrate coming from the front. It similar to a shiver LOL and it seems to take off slow..

I have changes the spark-plugs and wires. The engine light isn't on
If anyone can help me figure this out i would appreciate it.

Does vibration get worse w/ speed?

Do you notice vibration under acceleration at advanced speed?

Possibilities are worn CV axle/s, out-of-round tires, or loose suspension components.

good luck

Thanks for the reply,

once i get past the vibration and up to speed the car drives fine and normal, its just the acceleration it vibrates. once i get past 35 mph its fine and when it shifts it goes up to 3000 rpm then shift. remind you this is on slow take off.

Well Here's a update to my problem.. Turns out to be the transmission needs to be rebuilt. In which i have done research and this year of accord has transmission problems. The vibration is coming from the torque converter cause the transmission is sliping> i hope this help someone els out that may have the same problems.
