my car shakes???? help!?!?!?!

[blackcivic19]

[quote=t0m4t0][font=verdana]Anyone please?? I am so losing my mind right now, that I would sell my car, even though I don't want to do that! Just went a shop today, they rebalanced all four tires free of charge because I was there twice last week and still vibrates.

everything is stock, except: tires and rims.


hey I got the same problem but it just started last week , I jacked up the front and on the drivers side I pushed my wheel in toward the motor and pulled back out toward me real fast and it had alotta slop in it..I went to the passengers side and did it but there was no slop at all, so it meant two things wheel or axle bearing, after I pulled the hub away from the axle I checked the axle like I did the wheels and it was tight, so it is my wheel bearing, but I have to take the new bearing to a machine shop to have it pressed in to replace the old bearing because local parts stores don't sell the whole hub assembly...I havn't yet to make this a fact that that is whats wrong but what else is there I have checked everything. When I give my car gas or just go like 30-60 it does it.. Just check it out and see if you got alotta slop in your wheels...

It could be many differnt things such as:

Upper strut mounts
Strut
Spring
Control arm bushing
Tie rod
Ball joint
Wheel bearing
Warped rotors
Worn brake pads
Frozen or bad brake caliper
Bent wheel
Steering rack
Slipped belt or cupped tire
CV joint worn
Axle not balanced correctly

The easiest way to check the front end is jack it up and support, not under the wheels. Grab each tire and shake it in all direction, if you fell any play then a further inspection is needed. You should be able to see & hear the part thats bad. It's hard to pinpoint your problem without having the car here. That's something you need to see & feel.

that what I told him to do.. You gotta get down and dirty.. If not you can pay a technician $500 or more to tell ya what the problem is without even fixing it...

holly cow man! ive gone to all those shops including honda (dealer) and they could not tell me that? how is that possible, i dont know much about that stuff, i mean if the problem is one of those parts that both of you listed, how am i gonna find which is messed up? on the top of all that i have an extended warranty with honda that i PAY for it, but honda wont touch my wheels the way they are, i mean, i could put my stock wheels back and take it back, but i am so at that point that i dont think i would do that if you know what i mean. omg!
