Do I need a new axle?
Friday, October 22, 2010 2:14 PM
If Im on the highway doing about 75 and I let off the throttle my car shakes a little and makes noise. Its hard to describe it sounds like something is wobbling. If Im under throttle or using cruise it doesnt do it.

It doesnt make an difference if I turn the wheel on way or another. So that leads me to believe its not an axle since the sound would be biased when I turn one way or another. My wheels are torqued and balanced as far as I know. Im running the stock steels right now. Its also not a droning which doesnt lead me to a wheel bearing.

Is there something these cars are known for that Im missing.

I would say check ur tie-rods, and LCA bushings. Just as a measure. Also, you can check the axles while its in the air.
