So i have been feeling this weird vibration when my foot is on my dead pedal. Always while driving and breaking. Also, when i am idling my car vibrates a little too much i think. Just wondering what I should do. I am thinking for the vibration in the dead pedal i may need to balance and rotate the tires. I just did my alignment yesterday and that did nothing, so tire balance is next.

Any ideas?

could be alot of stuff...to narrow it down, you need to see if the vibration changes with speed, engine rpm, or if its constant.....a general rule for wheel vibration is if you feel it in your steering wheel, than its one of the fronts, and if u feel it in the seat than its in the back....

oh have you recently installed a torque dampener?

it is in the steering wheel and all the time expect while braking and no, havent installed a TD. i am on h-techs with stock struts and shocks tho

Go get an alignment that should fix it.....

DanielNC06

he already had an alignment....

I've been fighting a vib after getting new tires....although they are balanced(3 times)...they were cheap NEXEN tires..so i'm thinking that there it a flat spot on them that is counter balanced some how.

anyway, if it's all the time and in the steering wheel, then i would check out your suspension/axles maybe....it's puzzling since it isn't there under braking....

well it isnt too bad, but annoying. maybe something is loose? also, i have hit a few big pot holes, could be the tires

Alignments dont fix vibrations...only wear on your tires and centers your steering wheel...Trust me...Its my job...

Check your air pressure, (id put 30 psi)..usually give a smoother ride, balance your tires, and see if you need a rotation....but it shouldnt happen while idle

its not doing it as much at idle anymore, (was very hot and was driving all day), but i am pretty sure i need to balance and rotate.

--Final_Wrath--

yup...just make sure you get people who knw how to balance....I hate seeing Counter Balanced wheels...its a pet peeve of mine

i have to take it in soon anyway and i have a voucher for a free oil, tire balance, rotation and like 40 point inspection or something so ill have the stearlship do it.

^^ could still be the tires, i've found that it depends on how warm the tires are. I still say it's the tires and has something out of round with the tires. have it put on a tire balancer, watch the tire, i bet it goes up and down on its own (or side to side)
