wobble noise in front end after parts change
Wednesday, April 20, 2005 5:01 PM
so I had a wobble noise in the front end and my rotors looked really bad so I bought the rotors and pads and stainless lines from pat in the GP

Now I went and did the break in and I still have a wobble in my front end..What is up with that? What else could it be?

When do you notice the wobble? (speeds, braking, etc...)

Get the tires and wheels checked as well. Hopefully its just a tire out of balance or something.

Wheel balance is the first thing to check. You might have lost a weight of the wheel. If they're good, check to see if your strut is loose? Jack her up, take the front wheels off, grab ahold of the strut and see if you can move it at all. Should be rock solid, save for a little steering play (1/4" rotation). If it's loose, check the control arms and knuckle bolts.

if I just got a brake inspection done wouldn't that have covered the wheels and tires?

No, especially if it was some tire shop mechanic. Just have the balance on your wheels checked.
