    shaking over 50 mph

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Lately, I've noticed when I get up to anything over 50 mph, the whole cabin shakes a bit. The car has 73k miles on it, and was not modded at all when I bought it. I'm wondering if it could be a bad snub mount, engine mount, or trans mount? Or might it be one or more wheels being unbalanced?

    I know my description is very vague, but if anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

    It could be a wheel that has been improperly balanced.

    Or, if you have hit any bumps hard enough, it could have been thrown out of balance.

    I would check the ball joints since it's easy and free to do. If it's not that then look into having your tires re-balanced.
