harmonic/vibration problems
Hi my 1998 2.4 auto vti accord is vibrating at about 60ks/35mph ijust had valve clearances checked/adjusted by honda dealer and no diffrence except abit more power. is the old girl letting me know she's getting loose in the crankshells, or has anyone an idea what?. thanks Pete
Driving at a steady speed with the vibration, shift to lower gear but stay at the same road speed. Vibration stays the same?? If so, it'll be wheel balance. Or maybe a tire is beginning to go bad. Swap tires around to different corners to verify. It's not unusual for a wheel/tire to go out of balance over the life of the tire. Maybe a bent wheel from a pothole??
Thanks for that Jim. if anything changes e.g. going uphill or taking a bend, the shakes stop.I feel it's too fast to be a tire but they are due to be replaced soon so maybe that will solve the prob. Cheers Pete
When you get new tires, have them look for bent wheels. Sometimes the balancing machine has safety shrouds around the spinning tire, so you don't see a bent wheel unless you make a point to look for it.
