Ford - Ecoline :: 1996 - Van Vibrates When Turn Left / Right At Low Speeds
After I've driven the van for some 10-20 miles it vibrates through out the whole van when I turn left/right at low speeds. There is no problem at any speeds while going straight however. I've replaced both sides upper/lower ball joints, front wheel bearings, driver caliper, all the inner/outer tie rods, adjusting sleeve..etc, both rotors, u-joints(previous owner replaced them twice) new diff fluid, both rear drums with new pads. All 4 tires have signs of dry rot, but good amount of tread still on due to a lot of sitting. The van was sold as a 3.54 limited slip diff, but testing says its a possing traction. What am I missing?
View 1 RepliesToyota - Camry :: 2009 Shakes And Vibrates When Braking At High Speeds
I just bought a 2009 Toyota Camry with 78K miles on it. Everything is great except at highway speeds it shakes and vibrates when braking. The higher the speed the worse it is. Steering wheel shakes as well. I pulled both front tires off and the rotors appear to be smoothe on both sides with no grooves, etc. However, I'm due for new front brake pads. There's some pad left but could that be why it shakes and vibrates when braking? How do you tell if rotors are warped? Rotors are smooth but could they still be warped?

This just started happening on the driver side. Going over bumps and slight road wobble type imperfections make a medium pitched clunk sound. The sound stops as soon as I press the brakes ( which I just replaced last week). I do have a worn out bushing on the curved lower control arm. Could that be it? Do I need to replace all control arms or can I do just the curved set? If thats the issue.

My 08 passat seems to shutter or vibrate at higher and lower speeds. It comes from the wheels(front). At first I thought my wheels aren't balanced, but the VW dealership said everything is fine.???huh.. they roadtested it and nothing...but others that drive with me totally notice it..Major road noise because of it.
They also sold me winter tires and rims and they wore out after 25k same noise?... "Broken beads".... they said i hit a pot hole.. I don't think so.... So what do you think? Rotors? if so how much am i gonna get jacked ..

View 3 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Noise From Front Suspension When Going Over Small Bumps On Roads At Low Speeds
I'm getting ready to do some maintenance such as flushing the brake fluid, new air filter, and changing spark plugs. I've noticed lately a noise from what I'm assuming is my front suspension that can be heard when going over small bumps on roads at low speeds. It sound like a squeaky spring, almost like something needs to be oiled. I'm still on stock suspension with close to 80k on the clock, so I was wondering if there is anything in particular I should look for when I'm messing around the wheels bleeding brakes, or if there is a common procedure to lubricate something so the noise stops. I can hear it from inside the cabin so I imagine you can hear it from outside the car.
View 3 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Metal Part Of Front Wheel Scraping When Driving At Slow Speeds
When driving at slow speeds and when I go over a bump in the road, I'll hear something like the metal part of the wheel scraping something as its turning. Only comes from the front drivers side wheel. It's audible enough that people usually turn to look when I'm in a parking lot.
Took it to the dealer, they 'test drove' it. Said they couldn't hear anything. Then said that whatever I'm hearing is 'normal suspension noise'. So after leaving it a full day at the dealer, nothing has changed. Since when is ANY suspension noise normal? But I don't think its the suspension. What to do? Take it back? Take it to another dealer?
Passat (B7) :: 2013 - Metallic Rattle On Driver Side Front Wheel Area At Low Speeds Only?
After driving our 2013 Passat for 215 miles, we noticed that there was a rattling noise coming from the left front wheel area but only at slow speeds (under 10 mph). The noise disappeared at higher speeds. Today, we took the car to the dealership but they could not find anything wrong.
View 4 RepliesCamry :: 2008 - Front End Vibrates At 40 MPH?
Our 2008 Camry just started with the front end vibration about a month ago. I can really only notice it when accelerating and decelerating at around 40 mph. The front end seems to shake side to side. So far, I have had the tires balanced, rotated, and the front end aligned. The garage found one of the tires had a very small flat spot on one tire and replaced it. This did not fix anything. They sent me to a transmission sop, they said they saw nothing.
The steering wheel does not vibrate at all. Whether I use the brake or not, it always vibrates around 40, maybe up to 50. If the car is vibrating at any other speeds, I cannot feel it. The transmission place said maybe one of the axles is a little bit bent. But, couldn't say why the car did not shake at all speeds if it was bent.
I am going to bring it to a Toyota dealer. Are there any technical bulletins that might address this potential problem?
Toyota - Tacoma :: 1996 - While Braking Front End Vibrates?
This is a 1996 Toyota Tacoma, 2WD, 2.4L. When I apply the brakes I get a very heavy vibration in the front end, almost like a wobble. The vehicle otherwise stops fine. No noises. The vibration occurs at pretty much any speed over 20 mph. The frequency does not seem tied to the actual speed but it's hard to tell for sure. It does not do it when I apply the emergency brake only.
I replaced the front disk brake pads, with new clips and shims. There were worn down pretty far and needed replacing. Unfortunately that did not make any difference in the vibration. Rotor runout and minumum thickness were checked while changing the disk brake pads and both were within specs. I did a quick inspection of the ball joints and tie rod ends by trying to move the tire and everything seems tight enough.
I'm not very proficient on suspension issues. What else can I look for.
Passat (B5) :: Vibrates When Accelerate Happens At 40 Mph Then At 70 Mph
How come when I accelerate, my passat starts to vibrate? It happens at 40mph then at 70mph. usually when it's under load, like going up a hill or incline, or when i overtake someone. It feels like a rotory type vibration. I recently got new tires and waiting to get an alignment and wondered if the alignment could cause this. Also, the vibration has been there before the tire swap.

View 9 RepliesLexus GX 2010+ :: Front Seat Backrest Vibrates And Makes Noise
I've been hearing some kind of a rattle, and I thought it was coming from the dash. Just found out today that it was the front passenger seat; the backrest vibrates and makes a faint noise whenever the car hits a bump. Is this normal? My previous car (10+ year-old ES300) didn't have this issue. I'll be heading to the Stealer for service on Friday, if it is a problem then I'll get them to take a look at it.
My seatbelt fastener sometimes rattles too, I guess it needs to be replaced as well!

What the issue may be for the shuttering?
