when i drive no matter what gear i am in (auto) the car shimmies under my but and on the front of the car only from 20-25 mph religiously. i noticed it once i put my s-techs took em off a month later and put on eibach and i cant feel it as much but its enough were its starting to irritate me.
any ideas on what it could be? it doesn't happen at any other speed but 20 mph even if i drop the car into 1st gear only.
i have rotated the tires many times and gotten them balanced but its still the same thing. car has 88k

Axle? Lowering can cause issues with worn inner CV joints (can't recall the exact term) as the 'bearings' (also wrong term) ride on/between worn and unworn parts of the out cup.

i got a friend who's a mechanic at sears auto center i used to work there with and he knows his ****. i have an 02' max that does the same thing under acceleration. first i thought it was the struts so i replaced them( they were done anyway) no luck. he looked at it and said it's the right CV axle. our cars torque steer to the right under accel. and it puts more pressure on that axle. haven't changed mine yet, gotta get time off work first. i also talk to a friend who's a mech at a nissan dealer and he said it's the same thing. hope that helps you some.

When you get that taken care of let me know if it works. My mechanic won't change things until he sees it as a problem. But that comes with getting free labor from relatives.

Holy fawk.

Have you guys ever heard of using punctuation and making more than one paragraph? It might be easier to help you if I don't have to filter through a wall of text...

You're welcome. The failure I described is not exacerbated by turning.

He won't see worn CV joints unless the boot is torn open.

A picture of failure I described:

my money is going towards an axle, whether its making sounds or not.

now there is a slight howling sound only at high speeds it sounds like the bearing but last time they blew it wasnt quite the same sound. i might just redo the whole suspension cuz i think my trail arm bushing is just gone. there is no rubber on anything back there
