Why is the new car shaking?
2 Answers
Common causes of car body shaking: 1. Excessive carbon deposits on the fuel injector and throttle valve or a dirty throttle valve. During cold starts, the carbon deposits inside the engine absorb some of the gasoline, leading to an overly lean combustible mixture, difficulty starting, or engine shaking. 2. If the car body shakes slightly while driving or at high speeds, and the steering wheel deviates slightly, this is usually caused by issues with the car tires. It is necessary to check the tire pressure, tire wear, shock absorbers, and other components. 3. Abnormalities in the car's fuel supply system and ignition system can also cause shaking. It is important to check whether the intake pressure sensor, fuel supply pressure, spark plug ignition, etc., are functioning properly. 4. If none of the above issues are found, the problem may lie with components on the car body. It is necessary to check whether the engine mounts, rubber ball joint covers, and engine mounting components are loose, worn, or damaged. Excessively worn brake pads can also cause shaking when the car is locked, requiring replacement of the brake pads.
As a first-time new car owner, experiencing car shaking was really startling. I've heard from friends that common causes might be improperly installed tires or insufficient inflation, and sometimes uneven road surfaces can cause noticeable shaking. Additionally, if the new car's axles weren't properly adjusted at the factory, holding the direction steady at high speeds can be difficult, and the steering wheel may vibrate. I've personally checked for tire wear marks or foreign objects stuck in the tires and tried inflating them to see if it helps. However, I must remind everyone that safety comes first. If a new car has this issue, it's best to visit a 4S shop immediately for a thorough inspection. After all, continuous shaking affects driving stability, and an accident on the highway could be serious. Don't procrastinate—since the car is still under warranty, addressing the issue early can save you money.
