Anyone have experience with this? Below 35 the wheel goes side to side. At highwayspeed it's not an issue.

Any help is appreciated.

wheel balance, alignment, tire problem?

Sounds like a balance issue to me.

either balance, alignment or check ur rotors also, could be warped

I had tires doing that once and think the belts were braking. not alot of miles but the car didnt get driven much either. going slow you could see the wheel shake and barely feel it but speed up and it went away

Thanks for the ideas. I hope it's not my rotors. I don't get any pulsing while braking.

is it under acceleration or all the time?

paulff3

All the time at relatively low speeds. The steering wheel actually rotates back and forth a little bit.

Possible causes:
1) Check tire pressure- low pressure will cause this.
2) Wheel alignment
3) Wheel balance
4) Bent wheel rim
5) Defective tire[s], i.e. separating belts

I had the same exact issue and i thought it was an alignment. Turns out it was from a flat I had and there was a bubble in the tire. Good thing i changed it too cuz it could have cause a blowout. Make sure you get it checked out

Went to NTB last night. They balanced the tires, put them back on with no improvement. They then rotated the tires with no improvement. The car is out of alignment but not that much and the tires are relatively old. NTB guys said it could be wheel bairings or bushings.

how many miles on those rotors?

If it's a bit, I would have them turned//upgraded. If it was bearings, you're car would be worse at high speeds.

paulff3

Not many, maybe 8 or 9k.

Sounds like a bent rim.

It was tires. Replaced them last night with a set of Yokos. I'm amazed at the change in the car's ride.

Guys at NTB said my car was out of alignment but that a camber kit was needed to do the alignment - it's my winter car - 94 Accord. You guys ever heard of this?

paulff3

NTB guys were wrong. Dealer aligned the car no problem.
