Re: motor mounts and struts on 95 Camry
nmikmik,
Do you have a friend or relative with another Camry with the same tire and wheel size. If so, try swapping out the wheels and tires temporarily with that other car, one at a time, and then take it for a ride after each tire is swapped out to see if the vibration goes away. Conversely, if the problem goes away after swapping out a particular tire and wheel, then take the other car for a ride with your car's tire and wheel on it and see if that car now has the vibration. You may only need to replace 1 or 2 tires to solve the problem. (It is best to have tires of equal tread wear on the same axles.) I have seen problems like this develop if tires have not been rotated for a long time, and then they are finally rotated. This is especially true on front wheel drive cars. The tires on the rear have a tendency to bounce, since most of the weight is on the front tires. This bouncing may cause noticible cupping of the tires over time. Then when the rear tires are finally rotated to the front, the cupping causes a pronounced vibration that wasn't apparent when they were on the rear.
Good luck with solving the problem.
Mike
