02 Solara Vibs

02 Solara Vibs

Postby scottk » Sun Oct 12, 2003 10:48 am

My 02 v-6 coupe was experiencing vibrations at speeds > 40 mph. I have over 50k miles on already. After putting all new tires on it (Firestone Affinity) and re-aligned, and most recently replacing all 4 struts (KYB GR-2), the ride is smoother but still seem to feel the vibrations through the steering wheel. Any idea what's causing this?

Is it when braking at 40+ or just when you drive 40 +?

When you got an alignment, did you get your wheels balanced? after I got my rims, I got the same vibrations at 50+ mph and a rebalance cleared it up :D

50 mph vibration is common among unbalanced wheels. Happened to me once.
