Thread: Need diagnostic help on SEVERE steering wheel shake

Tweet

Take and put the wheels and tires off of something different and drive it and see if it goes away. I bet that the steel belt in one of the tires is seperating as the wheel spins. When you stop, it returns to normal and then starts up again after a touch. It will be a violent shake. A seperated belt doesn't always stay as a swollen up knot on the tread. I beleive you have a bad tire. I even had it on a balancer and it spun good. It would only do it on the car with the weight on it. ( Went thru this crap on my wifes car ) I learned something on that one.
