Honda vibration
Recently I started to get a vibration in a 1988 Accord. The car has 65k miles
on it. I'm pretty sure the vibration started suddenly and was not something that gradually got worse. As you approach 55mph the vibration starts to be noticeable. Sometimes the vibration will go away for a little bit and then come back. I did notice that if I accelerate, the vibration goes away until I reach a steady speed, then the vibration comes back. I already tried swapping the wheels front to back and also got all the wheels balanced, the vibration is still present, although it seems to have lessened a bit after the balance. This weekend I'm going to take a closer look at the car. Anyone have an ideas on where to start looking? TIA ------------- Alex |

Alex,
Speed-specific vibrations often have to do with wheel imbalance. You might have thrown a wheel weight, for example I've also experienced this when I park with my wheels slightly buried in a snow bank. Enough snow/ice sticks to the wheel in one spot and re-freezes. That extra weight on a wheel can produce a vibration which will shake a filling loose at certain speeds between 40-60mph. Good luck, --- Bror Jace |
