front end vibrations
Hey all.
Wokring on sorting out a vibration in my front end on my 1991 E30
M42 318is.
Here is what is new or recent:
Control arms
Bushings
shocks (bilstein sports)
springs (intrax)
tie rods inner and outer
Tires last fall
sway bar bushings
Wheels are straight when you eyeball them, but I haven't measured
them
I cleaned and re lubed sturt beariung. Feels good.
I have a steering wheel vibration that is only apparent when
slowing from freeway + speeds.
Just a jiggle in the steering wheel. Not an all over car shake.
Around town is not an issue.
If I try to feel for a brake pulsation at slow speeds I feel no
feedback through the pedals.
Not sure if related...but steering shaft seems to rattle on
gravel surfaces at slow speeds.
Here is my short list:
Rotor (but my gut says no as I never feel a pulse at lower speed)
Wheel bearings
Thrown wheel weight
U joint in the steering shaft (?)
What do you think? And thanks in advance!!!!
Ric
