This is great. Wide thinking, many ideas. Great side comments are very valuable. Covers a lot of ground well. Valuable talking of frequency of problems too.

[@jayviz]

Excellent video. I have a unique situation. I did all of the typical motor mount tests and there is no excessive play in the movement of the engine, however when idling in drive, there is a very deep low frequency vibration. 2007 Mustang v6.

[@AppalachianDIY]

That sounds like a motor mount. I haven't experienced it with mustangs but we hardly ever get them in the shop. You can search TSB 08-3-4 to see if that might fit your situation. But my first guess would be worn mounts. Ford cars are notorious for premature mount failure. Mostly in 4 cylinders, but the 4.0 is a strong engine which I imagine could stretch rubber mounts easily, if they were cheaply made.

[@brittanylee4591]

​@@AppalachianDIYmy 2011 Ford Taurus vibrates under seat when idling parked. Worse when at a stop light. 126000 miles.

[@ArmoniClifton]

Very helpful info . BMW e46 VERH VIOLENT vibration and eventually metal smacking sound under acceleration . Came out to be bad driveshaft flex disc . Rubber completely gone . Rides perfect now

[@robertalong1084]

Another thing to consider in the product line by Jilcat Proline. IT was engineered for aerospace, tested in racing and used in the military, so it is credible, but it removes the sludge build up that typically associated with stalling, vibration, and cvt issues.

[@VivianEBurns]

Greetings, I have a BMW 525xi (e60). Body Class: Sedan/Saloon. I too experienced a random vibration when I acceleration on the brakes. it feels though something is out of place when I drive 40-70mph at a 90-180 degree on turns. I had several works done to the car like the axel, arm bearings, etc. I went to the tire shop to purchase all 4 new tires at 75,000 miles. A few highway milages (832 ml.) on the road this became a problem. The alignment was done a day ago and went onto the highway and freeway. it was scary even after driving 30+ yrs. Please advise. By the way, your video is very informative and the extra mile you go to feed your fan great information for economic reason is a PLUS! Keep up the awesome work in store for you to continue and grow.

[@FireEater]

Great video I like the idea that you came up with a bunch of problems that can cause the shake it’s easy enough for backyard mechanics to do some research Thanks 👍🏻

[@shobud7561]

Thank you for posting ... I have a 83 Toyota Corolla Wagon with a two piece driveshaft with a bad Viberation on acceleration ! I have raised the veichel in the rear with an extra leaf in the pack . My queston is if I install a double cardon joint on the rear shaft would this emanate the Viberation ?

[@DRock70]

Great sound effects & definitely a Great video 👍 Thank you 🙏

[@Nitehawk1]

I drive a van that does it about 2 hours every where 😮‍💨 I’m always tell everyone better hope you said your prayers today

[@johns.1041]

Driving my 72 Olds 442 this morning thought I had a Death Wobble come out of NOWHERE The car was shaking side to side 30-35mph worst then braking to a stop felt like I had a flat tire scraed the crap outta me. Limped her home. Check the torque on all the lugs OK-check; Air pressure each tire OK-check; searched the net found your youtube Thank You. Jacked her up took the two front tires off and when I looked at the left one it was WAVY TIRE! Yup the tire on the rim was WAVY!!!! BF Goodrich TA broken steel belt (inside date code 2001) that will scare the crap outta ya just one more thing to check.....

[@AppalachianDIY]

lol, yes a separated tire can cause a scary wobble

[@keith5486]

Great comprehensive video. I found it while trying to track down a vibration that has been around for a while now but gotten worse. 2016 Ram 2500. Has aftermarket wheels and slightly larger tires. Vibration occurs at speeds 55 to 75 mph. Most noticeable between 70 and 75. Generalized vibrations felt mostly in my body. Dont feel it on steering wheel. Steering wheel tracks straight without play. Sometimes feels worse while accelerating other times it doesn't. I've lifted the front end off the ground and checked for play at 12/6 as well as 3/9 on each wheel. No play. Front drive shaft has no play In it and from what i can DOES NOT move while driving down the road in 2wd. Rear drive shaft doesn't have any play either. Control arm bushings appear to be in good shape. It's back at the tire shop for another road force balancing. Ive ordered a set of hubcentric spacers to see if MAYBE there is some play between wheel and hub. But I'm at a loss. The ONLY thing I found loose was the drag link to the pitman arm. There is a bit of roll and play to that.... Please, any insight you can provide is much appreciated.

[@silverbez]

Keith Gonyea i have the same problem on my 2017 elantra, let me know if you find the solution

[@ronaldrichardson5284]

Wheel Bearings = also common is a noise that sounds like a propeller that actually increases in pitch upon acceleration and decreases in pitch upon deceleration . . . I had a worn front wheel bearing that sounded like a cessna from the cabin of the truck!

[@briansnowdrifter4695]

I have a 1993 F-250 5 speed transmission with a dual mass fly wheel. I've started getting vibrations (tight) from 40 km and up. I had my tires re-balanced, checked my u joints, with no luck. I added dual mass flywheel cause I've heard they can cause related issues. Loved your video Thanks in advance.

[@locorudy626]

Good video appreciate your effort to explain all possible causes.

[@courtw3231]

Great video, I have a nice pathfinder 2013 and I have a very strong vibration with halting when accelerating from 10-30 mph. When i accelerate and the terrible shaking starts as if shaking and breaking on it’s own... 😟

[@helmedon]

You can get vibration from loose exhaust fittings too.

[@alihussein7806]

One of the best videos about noises and vibrations . I drive an E90 that is 10 year old and 115 K , it has a rhythmic fine growling noise between 50-70 speed , worse at 60 , none below 50 and above 70 and there is only a tiny bit of vibration in the steering wheel and vibration mostly felt in the front of the vehicle. Balance checked , tyres in good condition , engine runs fine , and two garages could not put their finger on the cause . Also I have no problem with car handling but I do occasionally have a gritty feeling on my leg and in the pedals bay . There is a minor issue with wheel alignment but no apparent uneven wear on the front tyres . Any ideas ? . Will subtle bent wheel cause this ? Could this be lower arm bushing problem ?

[@Raygilley10]

Your video is awesome I like the way you break it all down to different conclusions. Now I need to just see we’re it’s coming from?

[@hollycain9130]

I have wobble vibration taking off and high speed malibu 2012 help me please

[@jasongtivr6]

I have a rhythmic thump that starts around 20 mph and mostly goes away by around 40mph. It feels like it’s coming from the front left. Doesn’t get louder when turning and the sound stays even if I take it out of gear. And the car only has 10k on it.

[@georgecraft007]

My 1996 Cummins 2WD Ram truck had a similar issue. The front left tire would bounce 'out of control' above 30mph. The culprit was the rear right seized park brake cable. Confused? I was... Because of the drag on the rear right, the only torque was coming from the rear left which created a tendency for the front end to want to be pushed to the right. This caused the front right to dig in and the front left to want to lift off. It took a while for me to wrap my head around what was actually happening, but when I changed out both rear park brake cables, the problem was gone.

[@visionarydell6189]

This was very very helpful information man great details !!! I am having problem that was on a vibration at high speeds in the rear of my 14 ram 1500 it's not real bad but now I can feel it when I break also and at medium speed also any idea what u think that is? It's not really bad until I get his speeds

[@jaimezapien4897]

One of the best videos I have watched on this subject , pat yourself on the back young fellow.. keep them Coming

[@zachsmith890]

93 Chevy 1500 has loose steering and when I brake at a high rate of speed example would be pulling up to a yellow light and you see a cop on the other side so you have to hit your brakes it makes the front end wobble pretty ferociously, more towards the left side. If I ease into it and have time to break it's still wobbles but not as severely. It's the first truck I've purchased myself and plan on doing the upgrades and any type of repairs myself. Where would you suggest I start? There is what seems to be a lot of grease on the front left control arm and around the idler arm.

[@sebastonnovoselsky649]

I have a lifted 2000 f250 super duty, It shakes when I let off the gas around 50mph. One thing is when I put it in 4 wheel it'll make a clank with rotation sounds like. But doesn't make the clank when it's in 2 wheel. Replaces the u joints still have the issue. Differential? I'm new to lifted trucks but it's pretty bad

[@tjufghcf]

Great video! Thanks for the info!

[@Smoke-te1iy]

I had a 4 inch lift on my tj and a transfer case drop installed. Angles are correct but vibrates. Did a sye and driveshaft to eliminate vibration and also a transmission mount. Still have vibrations at idle and accelerating. Rode smith before lift. Any suggestion? Also mechanic said motor mounts were good.

[@ronmaxwell6972]

Ok I am Lucky I have issues with two at the same time. First one has the vibration when you let off your gas peddle. And it's pretty loud and in the back of the car. I have not check the Pinion Angle yet, but will. I had the driveshaft checked and it was out a little bit and they balanced it and it did help some. But still exist. I replaced the rear disc brake pads as they were loose from their metal backing plates, and that too seamed to help a little bit. So, I am trying to decide if a rear end carrier or wheel bearing, Pinion Angle or what? This is a 33 Ford Vicky with TCI Frame Lincoln Versailles rear end w/disc and a triangle 4 link, just bought car. Second on is at high speed, driveshaft check spot on no haven't check pinion angle but will, that is what I suspect on this one vibration starts at 100+ and continues as speed increases. Car is a 71 Torino Pro Touring with 2013 Coyote Drive Train 6 speed with a 3:73 gear. I think pinion angle a real suspect here. Any suggestions?? Or other ways to check and or pin point issues? Thanks, Ron

[@whosgotmybacknano]

Hey buddy thanks for the video. I have a 2012 volvo c30 R design. My vibration comes when am cruising at 80 mph. Its not in the steering but in the low end side near the pedals. It comes and goes comes and goes not constant. I checked my tires fully balanced, lower arms, struts, drive shafts and mounts yet nothing has solved my issue what so ever. Please help me

[@chrisyap9398]

this video explained clearly the causes and types of vibration. very easy to understand. thanks for the information.

[@AppalachianDIY]

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

[@stevestokes4206]

When I get into my 03 dodge ram 1500 5.7L 4wd hemi there is a vibration when I hit the gas. Maybe the Bearings of driveshaft Bearings. Any ideas?

[@MustangGuru]

In a Ford 347cuin I had a vibration under wide open throttle searched and searched. Turned out to be a rear main bearing that slightly spun in the main journal.

[@pvtwillward]

JamesonDIY I have an 05 cummins, I put new General "Grabbers" on it less than 3k ago. I pick up a vibration when I excelerate and when I let off, I don't believe it's a bearing and I trust the shop that put the tires on. But can't undoubtedly say it's the drive shaft or u joints. Any way you know if I could try to diagnose it without leaving it at a shop?

[@ashfaqchoudhury]

hi I just watched your video. my Nissan Sentra 2002 has vibrating problem during hot day only. I took my car in garage but didn't get any problem and advise me to continue to drive. I am worried during hot day. if I drive highway go above 80 km/h its start vibrate. I checked engine coolant . all in good condition. during acceleration not speeding up and start vibrate whole body and steering too. could you tell me what would be reason for this. thank you in advance

[@robertstrong5324]

wow this vid was made in 2016 👏🏽 other thing that was not mentioned another possibility with wobble, grind or shake feel, calipers and or center support bearing other vids just watched, other then that this gives some good ideas what to look for. well explained.

[@Buzzaard1949]

I have a 1963 Thunderbird that has been restored. Engine rebuilt, transmission rebuilt, new tires newly balanced. There is a vibration that starts at about 55-60 miles per hour. The vibration can be seen in the shifter...it shakes a bit...and it can be heard. As I slow down, without brakes, the vibration gets faster and disappears in the mid 50’s mph. The drive shaft has been balanced, the tires have been balanced and the brakes don’t seem to come in to play. Any Idea as to the cause?

[@michelemalone1613]

My 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4x4 started vibrating at 60 mph the after 2 days it clanked and clunked and I exited from highway.When I tried to accelerate it made clunking clanking more loud er,so i glided into gastation parking lot ,and I noticed it won't stay in gear and rolled back so I had to pull emergency brake and have it towed home.What does this sound like it could be,I've been wout car for 3 wks.

[@backtothesubject2140]

Hello. My steering wheel does not shake when applying brakes. Ever. My car from the bottom front shakes and sounds different when I apply brakes at high speed. Only during high speed when I brake it feels like car is going to break down and the idle sounds different. Idk if its the engine or brake stuff. Never does it during drive in the city. Only on high speed braking.

[@scotts8700]

i have an 04 f250 the front end shakes intermittently at all speeds when i slow down it goes away but it comes back sometimes even if im still going slow sometimes it starts when i hit a bump. if i lock the hubs it doesnt shake any more but it doesnt feel good in the floorboards.

[@GangTv497]

Wat can cause my rear drive shaft coupling to keep getting damaged I replaced it two .I keep hearing it could be my transmission or rear end differential. I have 2005 dodge magnum rt Bt the only part of my drive shaft mess up is the rear end

[@ishcar71]

Great video, you've covered a lot which helps me diagnose better when it comes to my older vehicles. This may be an odd one, I have a 2008 Impala SS, 325hp. It vibrates when slowing down, not necessarily when braking, just slowing down and it happens between 20 to 15 mph. After 15 mph it goes away. Have you heard of that before? TIA! I just subscribed too!

[@telecasterman18]

Hey James, I have a good one for you. I have a 2006 Toyota Sequoia. I get a harmonic vibration (think, a vibration that makes the same tone/sound/hum of a bad wheel bearing) that is detectable starting at 35ishMPH and gets really bad right at 55MPH. It sort of goes away or isn’t as bad over 55… it smooths out would be a better term. I also get a clunk sound going from P or N into D. So I naturally checked the ujoints (w/ transmission in neutral, transfer case in 2WD, wheels chocked) and didn’t get any play, the driveshaft is solid. Weird right? The only other thing I’ve noticed is the rear brake pads are starting to hit the squealer pins. The only reason I mention that is because I’ve once had a caliper hang up on me on a different vehicle that caused pretty bad highway, speed vibration, however, with the Sequoia I’m not noticing any vibration, when breaking, so kind of ruled that out. Any other things you can recommend checking? This one is stumping me.

[@mheath7178]

Very helpful video.

[@Wolfgang2018]

I got an ES 350 Lexus and I swapped out the motor mount on the passenger side, the vibrating stopped for a little bit. Later the vibration came back and I’m not sure if the part was bad or if it’s the cv axel or joint. Any ideas ?

[@Cilos21]

I have a 2002 Toyota 4runner and I had a vibration and it was my michellene tires all of them so I replaced them. when I had them on I was feeling at 30-40 mph and higher so I have toyo all terrain tires now and my vibration was back at 70mph so I got a good alignment and had my tires rebalanced and it's still there so I went to toyota dealership and had my tires rebalanced and the vibration is there so after I got my new toyo tires I had got my u joints done and it's still there don't know what I can do oh my 4runner is 2wd only at high speed for me like 70-and up but it stop when it reaches 65mph

[@joshuamoore24_7]

The 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland 5.7l I have is making a grinding rattling sound on acceleration. The half shafts don't feel lose when I try moving them when it's parked but the front drive shaft felt like it moves side to side slightly. I order a new front drive shaft. It's the style with CV joints. The truck has about 140,000 miles. Do you think replacing the front drive shaft will fix the problem????

[@bryang2724]

Can these vibrations cause the abs system to engage? It has only vibrated when I tried to power through. It feels like the vehicle is braking which have gotten hot (you can smell it). When it acts up it does have a hard pedal but not all the time. At low speed i have put it into neutral and it would still brake. I've had the engine and brakes checked by several shops. I did find a hole in 1 cv boot and another with a little play.

[@talk2philly]

Thank you for the video and the great explanations. Regarding your tight/loose demo though, wouldn't a bad spot on a tire or bearing happen just as often, being ONCE per revolution? The tire spins once each time the bearing spins once, right? Thank you! I am thinking maybe it is the distance from the center that makes it feel tight or loose, but I think I get what you are saying.

01 Tahoe 2wd. Front driver wheel bearing bad. Replaced it as well as the front passenger which was still good but replaced anyway. Now I have really bad vibration from 35-60mph.i do hear a clanking on the passenger front side as the vibration increases. Sounds like something loose but I am suspecting CV axles.but before any replacement there was no vibration at all. Also replaced front rotors as well and did get my tires balanced. Any ideas?

[@AppalachianDIY]

Honestly, if it wasn't there before I would check the parts you just replaced. I would suspect something was left loose. Most likely the hub assembly is loose. Those hubs are super easy to change out. The only things removed are rotor, caliper, and hub, so it should be easy to find

[@kaileymitchell8610]

Yes a broken mount can most definitely cause the shake at idle, but not the check engine light. What is the code? (P0...?) I can try and help see if its related

[@ginoasci2876]

See if anyone can figure this out...... On a 2014 Nissan Frontier. I had a set General Grabber XTS and now General Grabber HTS60, and both sets have a vibration between 60 - 80mph, and there is a thumping noise during highway speeds as the truck slows down as if the radial mesh is mismatched. Both General Grabber sets really stick to the wet and dry roads, but we can’t figure out why two different sets have this issue. It’s not my brakes, and because it sounds like the tires. When brake rotors are the problem there is a pulsating action and that’s not what’s happening here. Is it possible that a tie rod could cause this, or something in the steering linkages? I’d really like to keep these HTS60’s. I did hit a light pole with a big concrete block holding it in a stop&shop parking lot at a very slow speed but the fender and bumper needed replacing. Now everyone once in a while i’ll hear a clunk in the steering as i turn and move the truck but it’s not all the time. It’s hard to notice it as well because it’s a subtle noise and it’s quick. The thing is there’s no shaking in the steering wheel but the vibration is throughout the whole truck. I hit the concrete block with the front right wheel, but there was zero damage to the rim. So could the impact of the tire alone be enough to cause any damage to the steering system as a whole, but then again there is no shaking in the wheel, but again there’s a slight clunk when the wheel is turned and the truck is moving.....wtf could possibly causing vibration between certain speeds with two set of brand new tires ? the complaints department manager at the corporate office at Town Fair Tire is a real good guy and has agreed to swap out yet another set of tires or swap out each tire one by one to fine the damaged tire at no cost to me....that’s great service i’ll tell you. this guy is great, the store manager is another thing, but the company executive is dealing with this like a true pro and i really appreciate it. My concern is that this will still happen even with different brand, then what? three new. set of tires. vibration between 60 - 80mph subtle clunk but no wheel shake. first set was balanced three times by two different shops. second set has been balance twice. any ideas?

So i have a Lincoln Navigator ‘07 and it starts shaking when accelerating past 40 mph usually going up hill going in the highway and it also takes a while to accelerate past 40

Hey but i have a vibration like a TRrrrr noise when sometimes i but it in gear and in times i cant accelerate to much cuz it will cause the same vibration and TRrrrr and as soon as i let of the gas it goes away.then one day i didnt let off the gas peddle And TRrrrr and snap .then my traction stayed on. I kept driving it to get home and on the highway lost power , car didnt want to speed up untill finally it would catch then asoon as i slowed down it do the same ... The noise would be right under my middle console .i have a 2011 impala.thank u

I have a 86 ford bronco it clicks in the front end and and I put it on stands to diagnose the sound( im aware im a dumbass for this) put it in gear and the tranzfer case started jumping but is not the source of the noise could it be the hub?

Jameson DIY 2010 FORD F150 XLT REAR WHEEL DR IT SOUND IT LIKE A BLOWN RIGHT WHEEL. NO Had it checked no one can see nothing but it was like driving a box bang, bang no sound. It felt like shocks so I did the back and it drove good. I jump on the highway and it started shaking as I speed, than it would stop. Every few min it would start shaking the front. I took it in nothing, I took it to two guys nothing. I don't understand please help, I had the tires balance but I don't think is That. The front end and wheel is a little shake I feel it on my sit. I also feel like some times it goes to the left. Now it only shakes when driving, low speed and HIGH speed but it feels like the front end.

Hi my brother I'm driving Toyota fortuner D4D 4×4 3.0...my car is vibration when I go to 60kmh.i try every thing still vibration I don't know what to do.the only thing I didn't do or check is front Tyre berings.

[@ScarlettDuchess]

I have a fine frequency vibration..I guess tight as you mention. It's constant at idle or driving...vibration throughout the car. Causing pins and needles in my foot using the accelerator. 😖 Vibration intensifies with the air cond or heater on. The only issue I can hear that's abnormal is a random squealing type sound only when reversing. Hopefully the cause can be found or I'll have to sell it. 😫

hello I have a 2022 model golf 8 R car. I drove my car very hard for 1 year. (track, drift, drag)Naturally there was a problem with my car. When I take off at full power, there is a vibration that starts at 70-80km/h and ends at 100-120km/h.Vibration comes directly from the rear or from the middle of the car . tires new Balanced, no dents on the rims no vibration at constant speed, it just vibrates at full power. do you have any idea about this? The interesting part is the driveshaft has changed. But the vibration did not stop completely.. 60% less vibration than before, but it did not completely :(

[@milkyway6724]

vibration can cause anything drive shaft, tailshaft, centre bearing, torque converter, or even rear gearbox depends on drivetrain of your car

[@killerbsting1621]

Have vibration and humming noise. Feels and sounds exactly like rumble strips. Only happens on right turns slow speeds, and speed bumps...checked: wheel bearings, struts, shocks, balanced wheels, diff, brakes all good. Had car in three shops. No luck yet on source of issue

[@Fromaddicttoentrepreneur]

Omg this is the exact problem I'm having on my bmw! Did you ever figure out what it was?

[@1smae100]

Just today I've realized a slightly wobble on the side where I hit a curb. Also acceleration is slow to pick up speed not sure if it's just me though. But if anything what could be causing this. I hit a curb like 3 weeks ago and just now as it's getting colder now I'm noticing its not running as smoothly .

[@bhavin105]

I am having same issues. What did you do to get it fixed?

[@sibon4797]

Sorted my problem due to this video thank you 👍🏻👌🏻 top job

[@AppalachianDIY]

nice!

[@johnalaniz6902]

I have a 4wd k1500 1/2 ton truck when I turn the truck comes to stop as if the brakes are being applied( they are not) at low speeds. I replaced cv axles and sway bar links but after that same problem

[@johnalaniz6902]

I would be greatly appreciated if you can help me get a idea of what it might be thanks

[@rebeccarebeccahonan3727]

My car is shaking like it would if you was in wrong gear, can you suggest what it might be?

[@forgottenknowledge8917]

Mines a very low vibration at very low speeds when I accelerate. Must be the drive shaft. I'll have to get it checked

[@daniel121441]

I've got an 03 Pontiac Bonneville it vibrates and shakes at 60+ mph and feels like I'm bouncing going 25 mph I fixed the stabilizer bar link what else would cause it to front end shake and vibrate and bounce

[@AppalachianDIY]

I would suspect seized struts for the bouncing, and out of balance tires for the vibration at 60. Also check for tire abnormalities like bubbles or seperation
