Steering wheel vibration Options

[tsvo]

Hello, I have a vibration that I can feel through the steering wheel, especially as speeds increase. I have had the alignment done, replaced the tires and replaced the struts.

Any suggestions on what to look for next?

My front end had all the components replaced new. My wheels were freshly restored and had new tires. It took me getting them balanced 3 times to get them correct. Not all technicians are created equally when it comes to this task. One would think you just get the machine to read out 00 for needed weights but apparently not. I took my car to Roger Krause Racing in Castro Valley and they pulled all 4 wheels and each wheel was 1/2 to 3/4 of an ounce off. They stripped all weights off and rebalanced them to zero and now it rides glass smooth. So, just saying, maybe look at that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks for the info, I have found this true as well.

I have been battling this on and off with my 20 years of owning my car, the list-

1. Check, check and triple check wheel balance
2. Tires at good pressure
3. Tie-Rod ends in good shape
4. All suspension parts tight including spin nut on shock top
5. Wheel bearings in good shape and properly tightened to hub
6. Align wheel by spinning and looking at rim before torqing down
7. Check for tire flat spots from sitting
