Causes and Solutions for Steering Wheel Vibration
1 Answers
Below are the causes and solutions for steering wheel vibration: 1. Steering wheel vibration occurs at speeds of 80-90 km/h: This is usually caused by tire deformation or abnormalities in the transmission system. The solution is to first check the front wheel alignment angles and toe-in to ensure they meet standard specifications. If they do, make adjustments. Then, inspect the tires for excessive deformation. If deformation is found, replace the tires. 2. The vehicle runs smoothly on flat roads but vibrates when passing over uneven surfaces: This is typically due to excessive wear of the tie rod ball joints or detachment of the rubber sleeves at the joints. Replacing the tie rod ball joints can resolve this issue. 3. Steering wheel vibration and body shaking at speeds of 30-40 km/h: This problem is generally caused by improper use or prolonged tire aging leading to deformation. The solution is to replace the tires with new ones. 4. Vibration occurs when braking at high speeds: This is often due to issues with the brake discs, possibly caused by frequent hard braking, which overheats and deforms the brake discs and pads, leading to steering wheel vibration. Replacing the brake discs and pads can solve the problem. 5. Steering wheel and body vibration during driving: This may be caused by a twisted or rusted drive shaft. Since this component is located in a relatively hidden area, it is often overlooked during regular maintenance. During maintenance, you can ask the 4S shop staff to apply grease as much as possible.
