Not sure if this is the right place to post this but please correct me and I will move it.
There is vibration when accelerating and going 60 in my 98 VT, the car has been in an accident but it only started happening since I got a new crank angle sensor installed does anyone know what it could be.
Thank you in advance :D

Without actually taking it for a drive, could be a number of things
From -
DFI,
Coil Pack/s
Spark Plug Leads,
Spark Plugs,
Injector,
Injector connections,
And that's on a few.

Be best to first check all of the above items [not in that order] to eliminate those items,
As its a process of elimination with that sort of fault.
And get it scanned, as not every error activates the MIL on the dash.

Damaged harmonic balancer? Damaged when they replaced the crank angle sensor?
Next time you start the car, pop the bonnet & look at the balancer.
Does it look like its running true? or does it look like its got a wobble?
Take it back the mechanics.
