I'd say around 60-65 mph sets it off... only the steering wheel vibrates (less now since replacing the thrust arms). Weird part is that it comes and goes. When it's in Vibrate Mode (lol) the steering wheel vibrates/shakes the same at all speeds 15-65mph. Before the thrust arms were replaced it would get better /vibrate wouldn't happen when the brakes were applied. There's still a little play in the front wheel when it's jacked up and I wiggle the wheel back forth so I'm guessing it's the wishbone control arms.
Two of my friends gave different guesses, one said wheel bearings and the other said possibly a sticking caliper. The second guess is sort of interesting because I would say a week or two ago I parked up in the yard (backed it up) the next morning leaving (in Drive) for work I activated Hill Descent to see how it worked, so maybe that could've messed something up with the brakes? :dunno: Yesterday when it was in "vibrate mode" and I was either rolling very slow in bumper-to-bumper traffic or starting from a complete stop it def felt odd -- the only way I can describe it would be the feeling of a flat tire or bent wheel, really bizarre. If the control arms aren't the fix then I'll check the calipers next. |
