the steering wheel starts to shake hard when driving around 65-75mph.
anyone have this problem? the car has over 165,000 miles, thanks.

 

Bad axles?

Is there any other sounds? You change anything as of late? Maybe you need an alignment?

 

or the wheels balanced...

 

or maybe new tires. that was my case while ago.. do you hear any noise driving ?

 

I would go for getting your wheels balanced. That fixed my problem when my started to shake around 70+ mph

 

i wont lie i once effed up my tire pressure in my pass side front wheel by less that half a psi and it did that. check your tire pressure, your cv axles/boots, bearings, tierods ect. i honestly doubt its anything in the rear end. thats my .02 cents

 

Hahaha

My front left tire leaked about 10 psi a day and I noticed no difference in my steering wheel's vibrations/movements. Major BS if you ask me...



Anyways back the the OP, get your alignment checked out.

 

i was trying to salvage my pride by only putting 1/2 a psi. it was more like 5 LMAO and yeah there was a HUGE dif in driveing. lol

im merely and legally a child still and i dont like looking dumb around a bunch of people wayy older than me

 

busted boots/raxles.

 

if you have a slight pull also then it could be tire condition. then I would check balance on front wheels.

 

thanks, im going get this checked out.
there is no noise, the steering wheel vibrates hard at 70mph and i cannot figure this out. tune up was done in 06, tires are old, and i replaced both cv boots in the front.

thanks for all the help!

 

In my experience, the main causes for vibration were:

1.) Out of balance wheel
2.) Excessive / uneven tire wear
3.) Out of Alignment

 

+1 on on that that was my issue plus a bad rim

 

Get an alignment and your wheels balanced.

 

one of the weights used to balance the wheel may have fallen off, I agree with everyone that suggested to get your wheels balanced, 9 times out of 10 thats what causes vibration in steering wheel only at certain speeds.

 

 

i have a bent front left rim from when my buddy crashed my car into a curb. mine vibrates... so i put it on the rear so when I got new tires i told them I wanted that rim on the rear left side... seemed to help things out a bit but there's still vibration.

After that accident though, I need new control arms, which he paid for. I'm not sure what else it needed because he kept the receipt...

 

do the speed limit
