When i drive my car after beingon the highway for say 20 mins my car in regular city driving, the steering wheel starts to vibrate furouciously.. could this be a pulley problem???? i did notice my two pulleys vibrate a lil in idle. maybe just me any suggestions????

 

Tire balance is the most likely culprit.

 

have you hit any potholes lately? you could've bent your wheel out of round. have you recently put on aftermarket wheels?

 

no when imin drive but my car is still. thats when it does it like when at a light or something???? any ideas???

 

Oooo. I missunderstood.
Does the car rev smoothly? Any loss of power?
Do the RPM's drop low?
How many miles?

 

The car pretty much revs ok i seafoamed it and i have done a full tune up. when im goin at like 40 and i hit the gas like half way the car speeds up very wierd and not smooth at all. the rpm is at 750rpm when im still and in drive i have 79000 miles so ur guess is as good as any man

 

I suspect new coils in your future.

 

I had that problem and I had my rack and pinion tightened. Go to an alignment shop and see what they have to say. There are a number of reasons why your steering is shaking.

Warped tires
Worn motor mounts
bent wheel
improper wheel balance
out of alignment
rack and pinion is loose

Give more info. How is it shaking. Side to side? Just vibrating?

 

Coils dont cause the steering wheel to shake!

 

I have the same problem. I took my car to the tire place that put my tires on a few months back and they checked and rebalanced the wheels for me. So I take it out and it's worse than before! I'm not going back there yet, b/c I haven't been satisfied with any of the work they've done. But now I have this bad vibration that starts up around 60 and gets really bad around 65-70. It's accompanied by a really hard to describe noise from one of the wheels; it's something I hear everytime the wheel goes around. Could it be a bent rim? Or a wheel bearing? AAAAAHHHH...I'm going crazy! So many stupid things could be wrong.

 

Coils can make the engine idle rough. Rough idle can be felt through the steering wheel.

 

Ben. You are right, to some degree. However the steering wheel would not shake because of the ignition coils as described by the symptoms.

Your diagnosis sucked.

 

OK guy thanks for all they advice man much appreciated. BUTT my steering wheel shakes when IM AT A RED LIGHT IN DRIVE, NOT WHEN IM DRIVING. IT VIBRATES VIOLENTLY. AND THATS WAT IVE BEEN HAVEING A PROBLEM WITH. thanks for all you .02 guys. i hope i made myself clear this time

 

I had the very same problem -- your coils need to be replaced. I replaced all 6 of them and it is fine!!!

 

But there is not ses light or n e thing???? how can i tell if the coils havents been replaced yet there has to be a grey dot somewhere or something?????

 

I must say if there are no SES codes coming wait for one to come and then if it is a P1320 -- u have a bad coil set. I would think it is just a matter of time before a code is thrown!!!

 

hmmmm truu, did you have like surges of power when u would be driving? did you feel vibration in your ga pedal when you would press down on it??
