Hey guys… its about my Khyber… the steering wheel shakes like anything on high speeds… what could be the problem… what to do…??? Help plz…
it is related to the front suspension of your car. your tires may be worn out or they may be unbalanced. go to a tire/suspension shop. he will fix your problem.
nightsurfer... thanx for the reply man... tires are in good conditon... and i;ve already had the wheel balancing and cambring done on it... its no good...
do the following things ...
get ur wheels aligned ...install new imported tyres ...
ur problem will go for sure ... inshallah ...
@siliconsmileyes istall imported tubleless radial tires. your stearing bushes might be worn out. go for a complete suspension check up.
thanx sabre, nightsurfer... tyres are bridgestone grid II steel radials... and is there any possibility that alloy rims might cause this kind of problem...???
hmm if your rims are balanced then they will not cause any problems, but if they are deformed then they are a problem. i would advise you to take your car to the suspension shop on a nice sunday morning because it may take some time.
As already discussed do the following things. (but follow it stepwise)
Check the tyre inflation
Check steering bushes and the steering machine and ask the mechanic to adjust (tighten) the steeing machine
Check the ball joints and the tie rod ends and Chimtas (The suspension)
Recheck your wheel alignment, wheel balance and Camber by somewhere else.
Check for possible problem in the brakes.
thanx nightsurfer... testdriver... good checklist... will do as u have sugested... thanx man...
Wheel Balancing
bad tires,upper idler arm,ball joints any one of them.
firtst of all check the following things1.check front suspension thoughrouly2.steering tie rod normally it creates a problem at high speeds3.ball joints.4.also check engine mountings some times if it is broken then bcz of its shakyness can problem at high speeds.i hope your problem will be ok.thanx
hello!seems problem related to bad rack-ends or bad ball joints.....also check tyres pressure...looks like your Steering rack has got some problem....Tahnxxx
yes that could be case too
Change the engine oil
if the shaking is because of the throttle, like if u push the car then its the internal axel thing . i dont know wat u call it. but the end of axel towards the gearbox. we call it axel coppi .
@tauseef, a friend of mine feels very minute wobbling (car shaking a little) at 40/50 km, while accelerating from 2nd to 3rd gear. There is no wobbling at lower or higher speeds. could it be cuz the car had an accident (hitting another car from rear)... any more info? A mechanic told him that this is ok
go to LDA office and ask for road repair and dont forget to have a nice banana milk shake after that
@siliconmile
go to the nearest neurologist and ask help on postural/action tremor or Parkinson's disease.... it might cure u...
