Chicano2005 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 So any of you had the same thing? If so, what did you do to fix it?? It shakes side to sie under normal driving, slow or fast. My guess is a tire may have a bump somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qx403 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I had a shaky steering wheel on an 01 and it was a bad outter tie rod end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Check your drivers side strut tower for rust, and your steering parts/tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devonianwalk Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Tire Balance +1 Or, check the tire pressures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Gone muddying lately? A little mud on the inside of the wheel can cause violent shakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pathfounder Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Mud on the inner side of the rim and tire balance are my guesses. All it takes is a bit of mud to stick on, or a wheel weight to come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicano2005 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 well, i did the balancing and it did not help. i will take it for a check-up to a local mechanic maybe they can figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicano2005 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Finally got it fixed!! Turns out to be a bent rim. So i just put the rear ones to the front. Thanks guys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle94 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Bent rim? Id see about getting a new one... seems like it would cause a vibration no matter where it is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicano2005 Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Well, the steering wheel stoped shaking completely. I cant fell the pathy shaking/wobbling but yes i will be on the lookout for another rim or set of rims on CL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
