nipper Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Lets get back to basics and forget everything. Lest try the simple first. Rotate the tires one side at a time and see if it moves. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprezaII Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Nipper , thanks for you help . Tried that , went front to back , left to right . The Goodyear snows are unidrectional so we demounted them and flipped them around . Vibration still there . One rim was slightly out of round , replaced with new " tested true " one , just in case . We really like the car . Keep suggesting . Very Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Do you have "summer tires" for this car? Was this issue there with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprezaII Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Yes , they have broken belts. the tires and rims were given to me by my brother from his mother in laws Dodge Shadow . Don't think her car ever met a pothole or curb it didn't like . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprezaII Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 I wonder if with the first snow storm , if accelerating really hard moved something or put something out of alignment ? Has anyone ever had issues with their engine or transmission mounts ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Common thing for the tranny mount to fail with age. The rest of them seem to last the life of the car. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
