What causes car shaking when releasing the accelerator pedal?
1 Answers
Shaking when releasing the accelerator pedal may occur due to insufficient RPM during gear shifting, which is a driving technique issue that can be resolved by the driver. It could also indicate problems with the engine mounts, where engine RPM and vehicle speed resonate at the same frequency. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Causes of shaking: Another possible reason is severe uneven wear on the four tires. Avoid mixing spare tires for high-speed driving - spare tires should only be used temporarily and replaced immediately afterward. You can also check wheel balance and four-wheel alignment, as long-term misalignment may lead to uneven wear. Even with balanced braking force distribution across all four wheels, significant differences in braking effectiveness may still occur, causing shaking. This is usually not noticeable at low speeds but becomes apparent during high-speed braking when greater braking force is required. 2. Solutions: 1) Engine shaking in neutral while stationary; replace engine mounts. 2) Steering wheel shaking when braking at high speeds; replace front brake discs. 3) Body shaking during low-speed rapid acceleration; replace spark plugs. 4) Body shaking when pressing the accelerator that disappears upon release; replace the drive shaft.
