" or if you're trying to race somebody on the freeway" ratchets is a Savage truth snitch

[@ToyotaLand4d56journey]

In my experience I thought there's a problem in the engine because the vehicle seem to be jumping when in moderate speed. I consulted two mechanics and they mentioned two different things with a high cost of repairs. Before I will do the what the mechanics told me I have to hear some ideas about what is happening in my car. I related the issue to my friend who is a tinsmith and he said, "let's have a road test". After a kilometer he decided that we will jack up the rear tires, turn on the engine and engage it to the second gear and rev the engine. It was the right rear right tire that was oblong because it turns unevenly. He recommended for a replacement and I did it with the two rear tires and we got the issue solved. It's not obvious that there is something wrong with the tires, they look good, not so worn out but it's already 6 years in use. Shaking badly when you drive, or you feel as if the vehicle jumps even loaded as it moves forward, maybe the rear tires are old and needed to be replaced.

[@ChavezDIY]

Thanks for making this video. I been chasing this vibration in my steering wheel. Tires, wheels, axles, upper control arms, end links, and outer tie rods are all good. I'm narrowing it down to the inner tie rods now that you mention them in the video.

[@TheDoombugg]

Could be your co2 sensor

[@clappedfirebird4541]

Wheel balance

[@ChavezDIY]

@@clappedfirebird4541 I got the wheels balanced 2x but problem still there. I have aftermarket wheels with aluminum hub rings. Going back to stock wheels and if problem persists, I will replace the inner tie rods. It's a 13 year old car and they have never been replaced.

[@ChavezDIY]

I found a bad lower ball joint and it reduced vibrations after I replaced it. But vibrations still there at freeway speeds. I now suspect the passenger axle is going bad. My Acura is lowered and there's a known issue that lowering car puts extra stain on cv axle.

[@djbhe]

I had the same problem and couldn't find the source of the vibration after changing out several parts and now figured out it is bad struts and strut mounts.

[@renesmith1759]

. good mechanics that actually talk to you and you actually understand what they are telling them to leave

[@shawtydat]

I was suspecting that my aftermarket CV axle was causing a little bit of vibration on acceleration, and this analysis confirms it. It didn't have the extra weight on the axle like the OEM. Thanks!

This video actually help me diagnose a problem with my wife's car; oil dirtying the spark plug

[@chasengrieshop]

A lot of good information here. Thank you. I'm not sure my issue was addressed though. The issue: At 50 mph there is a vibration with a higher engine rev sound which gets more pronounced as I increase throttle. It sounds and feels like I have the car in 3rd gear at 50 mph or higher even though It's definitely in 5th gear yet my RPM's read normal (2,500 RPM @ 50mph). While driving at higher speeds - when I disengage the clutch and put the transaxle into neutral, the high rev sound and vibrations disappear entirely.... when I re-engage the transaxle and engine, the high revving and vibrations return. The issue is specific to when power from the engine engages the transaxle. Car Specs: 00 Toyota Celica GT 1zz-fe engine and 5 speed manual transaxle. I recently swapped my original 1zz-fe engine (which died at close to 350k miles) with another 1zz-fe from an 04 Corolla JDM. During the process, I installed a stage 2 clutch, had my flywheel resurfaced, and purchased brand new Genuine Toyota motor mounts from the dealership. I also purchased after market motor mount inserts to give the motor mounts a little extra firmness. I also replaced the intake manifold gasket, and the exhaust manifold gasket with factory OEM parts from the dealership. Drive shafts are stock and inspected to be in good condition (although the driver's side gave me a hard time during re-install). Tires are relatively new, as they were replaced around 800 miles before the engine swap. I performed all of the work according to Toyota specs outlined in the repair manual. Opinion: would it still be the wheel hub bearings, tie rods, or tires, etc given that the noises and vibrations stop when I put the car in neutral and coast down the road at 60 mph? I'm thinking the sound and vibration wouldn't be predicated upon whether or not the transaxle is engaged with the engine if that were the case. If the bearings are bad... there would be sound that either gains or decreases commensurate with velocity not with engine engagement or lack thereof. Could this be a vacuum issue? Or an exhaust issue? I actually wondered about the engine mounts on my drive to work this morning, so that's an interesting mention in your video; however, I'm most concerned that this issue will require me to drop the transaxle again. The sounds and symptoms just aren't consistent with any transaxle or clutch issue I've ever heard of or had.

[@seno6788]

don't know if you ever got it fixed but if you did mind telling me what it was i'm having the same issue and can't figure out what it is

[@chasengrieshop]

@@seno6788 I have not yet gotten the issue fixed, but I think I have narrowed my suspects down to the clutch and flywheel. I've actually had to wait until the school year ended to pull the transaxle and clutch in order to get to the bottom of the issue. Since I needed my car to drive to and from school, I just couldn't afford to rip half the engine apart to drop the transaxle. So, I am about to start that job up in the next few days now that summer break has started and kids are out of school now. I was driving along from the beach barefoot, and could feel in my clutch peddle some severe vibration that I could never feel with regular shoes on. That vibration was never present prior to the engine swap and clutch "upgrade." As it turned out I did have a bad sway bar stabilizer that had gone bad on the passenger side of the car, so I replaced both the driver's and passenger's side with a set of Moog stabilizers. While some noise (which turned out to be unrelated) has gone away now, the vibration issue still persists. While dealing with the suspension issues, I inspected my wheel hub bearings and they were fine. So, I've ruled out the bearings, tie rods, mounts etc as the culprits. At this point I really do believe the problem is with the clutch and/or flywheel. Especially since I can feel that vibration in the clutch pedal. If I'm right, the issue is that this clutch might just be either causing a slight imbalance in my flywheel, or perhaps when I took the flywheel to get surfaced at the machine shop they might have messed up the balance of it. I've been dreading doing this job, but the time is finally here to do it, so I'll try to remember to report my findings here when it's done.

When came home did diagnostic w/Actron, it gave me P0404 (before it gave code P0446, with Engine light on, I erased it, the code gone). Before Idling was on ~800, normal driving. I replaced EGR like 4 months ago. Now the arrow vibrates back and forth, rather rapidly between 400 and 1000. The vibration increased. What that can be?

I had shaking / vibration at highway speeds on my '05 Ford Focus. I thought it was the transmission (which had just been replaced). Checked it out with the transmission shop, but the mechanic there pointed to a bad wheel bearing. Had the wheel bearing changed out, but that did not fix it. Took it to another shop and lifted it up and found the tires were very badly worn in an odd slant pattern. I guess probably due to a very bad alignment situation. I had tires replaced and balanced and realigned and the problem was fixed.

If you have a vibrating steering wheel and none of the above helps consider the front shocks/struts. Once had a car that had engine mounts changed and good steering parts but always shook at the wheel. Changed the struts later because they were shot only to find that the wheel vibration disappeared too.

[@Npc5150]

If you have a transverse engine, shifting from drive to park and allowing it to sit in gear for a few seconds... just keep shifting from D to R to D and it will show the wear of the mount in the very front of the subframe. The engine will rock back and forth after the gear change. BTW, I've never heard of "axle shaft balance" before. Worked in several shops (tune ups) for about 10 years. Now you have me wondering about my axles.

Had that problem on a 2007 Ford Escape. Rebuilt the transmission for $1,000, problem went away only to start having symptoms again after a few years. It also leaks transmission fluid. Most of the time, transmission failures are due to transmission fluid leaks. I have 2 manual cars and my family owns 4 automatic cars. All the automatic cars leak and have been repaired before, which means the technicians are not sealing it properly. They just have to follow the basic instructions for RTV sealant, but most likely they don't, because they are in a rush and don't want to wait the 24h cure time before refilling with fluid.

My car vibrates a lot in idle you can feel it on your feet sitting in the car. There's no engine light but I notice at idle the RPM needle moves up and down ever so slightly. Lights on the car and in the cabin dim a bit too then come back. It might be a miss fire I haven't noticed any loss in performance and at highway speeds it's fine just at idle it vibrates a lot

[@TheDoombugg]

Probably engine mount, or a pulley. If not lost of power. Check pulley in which power the alternator

[@ryans413]

Anthony Mckinley do you think the belt could be slipping could be why the lights are dimming cause the alternator powers everything and the cars computer could be getting not enough power could be throwing off information to the engine why the RPM needle moves up and down at idle making it vibrate. Just my thoughts

[@TheDoombugg]

I dont think its the belt. Try the scanner to see if something comes up. My guess is the air pressure. It can be a leak in the air hose or. Airflow sensor. Rpm is usually move with from the air intake. It also cause it to move around. And power up the alternator. If there no codes. Then air must be escaping somewhere.

[@ryans413]

Anthony Mckinley I did the scan tool no codes and no pending codes also no check or service engine lights on the dash. Maybe it's all normal and just how it runs. It's a Pontiac grand am 04 if that helps v6 3.4 maybe it's just a dirty MAF Sensor I'll try cleaning it and replace the air filter

Good video. l like how you explained accurately and precisely what can cause vibration while driving and when the car is stationary . You gave us 6 reasons not 5 .

[@michaelc1154]

What about your steering wheel shakes when driving around 60 and breaking as well?

[@josesuarez2737]

Your brake discs need to be replaced

[@amajor1989]

Darn it, I need to replace my back brakes and get better tires. My car does the same thing g at 60 Mike's. Well gonna need more money, not 1 thing it's another. Life throws to many curb balls.

[@jacklabloom635]

Helpful video. I've been trying to diagnose a vibration in my 2003 Toyota Tundra. Had new tires installed. Still vibrates. Checked the drive shafts and center bearing. U-joints appear to be okay. Center bearing appears to be okay. Installed new plugs. Still vibrates. All these things needed replacing anyway, so now looking at other things.

[@TheDoombugg]

Any lost of power?

[@jacklabloom635]

Anthony Mckinley , no there does not appear to be any loss of power. Most of the vibration went away, after I changed the spark plugs. The original plugs had 78,000 miles them. It must have been missing a few plug fires at highway speeds.

[@TheDoombugg]

@@jacklabloom635 yes... Some people forget about the spark plugs

[@02studios]

On point. I had shaking problem whenever i pressed brakes on high speed. thanks to this video i get to know the actual cause.

[@foreverwood1963]

I've had shaking at low and high speeds and it's intermittent but definitely coming from the tires. When it started I was driving only about 35 to 40 mph. Sometimes the steering wheel shakes as well. One thing that I must note is when it stated my wheel started smoking and smelling like burning rubber. Then it suddenly stopped and didn't happen for a month and was back.

[@0penEyesAndMind51]

Front end suspension issue right?

[@jamesstuart3346]

Check for a dragging brake caliper

[@foreverwood1963]

The caliper was stuck now the other has started

[@jamesstuart3346]

@@foreverwood1963 If you are a DIY type, pull the caliper off and clean and lubricate it. Otherwise a shop will just throw on a new one

[@foreverwood1963]

@@jamesstuart3346 Yes I tried that with the first one and it was so seized it would’ve needed a rebuild so I changed it out. I am pretty handy and learn quickly those things I read up on

[@mckenzie4487]

What about the engine shaking/vibrating with no lights or codes? Even after doing mounts, coil pack, spark plugs…etc

[@marvinadipo254]

My car shakes when braking at a low speed or reversing,plus the exhaust pipe keeps vibrating

[@leoh4844]

My car is the exact same bro, you find out what was wrong??

[@juliobello4561]

Have you check your engine mounts

[@vlratcliffe1]

Thanks for the help .my car has vibrations when on highway slowing down from 60mph to 50mph you ONLY feel the vibrations when slowing down and its ONLY when I brake NO vibration on steering wheel just footwell .so I'm going to strip them down brake calipers pistons pads an grease an lub it all . Cheers .

[@omegadescartes2499]

Mine only happens when I go sixty or seventy miles.It only happens when I go fast

[@vlratcliffe1]

@@omegadescartes2499 don't go fast lol does your do it when you brake or is it when you drive if it's when you drive it check the wheel nuts check the play in steering .put the window down and move the steering wheel up down an see if the front wheels turn as you move the steering wheel . Other thing is your wheel balance might be out you need a like quick fit to check each wheel as they will check the wheel barings too hold the top an bottom of your wheel and wiggle the wheel they will know what to look for

My case is N2. Honda accord 2014 sport. I have changed all 5 (3 for engine and 2 for Cvt) to genuine mounts. It has still a bit uncomfortable vibration which I feel on my and passengers seatback. Also I would like to admit that when I turn the lights on or heating or AC and as soon as RPM goes a bit high, the vibration disappears completely. You have mentioned axles. Unfortunately I don’t know whether previous owner has changed the axles to aftermarket axles or they are still genuine but I would like describe my case to you and ask you what is the solvation of this issue? waiting for your reply

[@blaze556922]

What about vibrating when idle only? I kept waiting for you to get to that part

[@ayannadevaughn86]

Does he talk about that?

I love how I looked up “why are you shaking” on KZbin to find the video of sweetie and jack harlow. And I actually just find a video that addresses a real problem with my car 😂😂 now I know why my car is shaking at highway speed 💀 cool

Did you say anything about if it shakes while parked?

[@authenticcalisthenics7825]

I have an 06' Civic and a few months ago I ran over a cement divider in a parking lot and just yesterday I ran over the curb. Both times I scraped the bottom of my car and never had any real problems until today I got in my car and noticed my car vibrates really bad when I put it in reverse. I've noticed it doing that in the past but today was more then usual. I know you'd have to see the car to diagnose what's wrong but any ideas what may be wrong? What'd cause it to vibrate in reverse? This is my first car and I'm new to all of this lol. Any suggestions or input would really help. Thanks.

[@tomrast9629]

hello what if i have vibration on the engine only on idle ??? thank you

[@mysterious716]

TOM RAST I have the same problem

[@hrfb9696]

Just had my 2005 Tacoma prerunner rear u-joints and center bearing replaced and now I have vibration from dead stop for a very short time. What could be the cause? Would it be due to diff low oil? My truck has TRD SPORT package with SLD. Thanks
