OH!!!! READ THIS! There is a Strong vibration thruout the car if i go above 60mph too.....any word on that? seems to be linked with the brake problem maybe?! HELP ME lol ty Godofwarmike 02-09-2009, 04:17 AM if its not your brakes causing it go have your tires rotated and balanced. and be sure to check the condition of the tires for bald patches or unusual wear if they are quite worn (wear markers level with the tread) replace the tires. Davescort97 02-10-2009, 12:51 PM Rotors may be warped from uneven torque on the lug nuts. Loosen and tighten the nuts to 100 lbs./ft. in a criss cross fashion with a torque wrench. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
