What is wrong if you hit a couple of curbs with the car at 40kmh and at speeds of 90 kmh and higher it starts to shake violently and pulls slighly to the right?
I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM A FEW YEARS AGO. IT TURNED OUT TO BE THE LINKAGE ON THE PITMAN OR THE IDLER ARM?. I TIGHTENED IT UP AND IT SEEMED TO HELP A LOT. IT REDUCED THE SHIMMY A GREAT DEAL. YOU MIGHT TRY INSPECTING THE TIRE TREAD AND LOOK FOR TREAD SEPARATING. THIS CAN CAUSE A SHIMMY OF THE FRONT END WHEN ACCELERATING TO HIGH SPEEDS. AND POSSIBLY CAUSE IT TO PULL TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT DEPENDING ON WHICH TIRE HIT THE CURB. YOU MIGHT SEE THE STEEL BELT SHOWING THROUGH THE TREAD.(A VERY GOOD CLUE). WHEN YOU HAVE THE TIRE RAISED UP OFF THE GROUND, GRAB HOLD OF THE SUSPECTED TIRE AND TRY TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY PLAY IN THE ASSEMBLY / MOUNTING. SEE IF IT RATTLES ANY THING. CHECK ALSO FOR POSSIBLE "BUBBLES" IN THE TREAD. (TREAD SEPARATING OR "MAY POPS" ). CHECK THE TIRE PRESSURE TOO. LOW AIR IN THE TIRE CAN ALSO A PULL. CHECK ALSO ALL THE SUSPENSION AND THE STEARING ASSEMBLY & BUSHINGS (i.e. TIE RODS & LINKAGE, SHOCKS ETC..) FOR WEAR. SOMETIMES THEY JUST MIGHT NEEDED TO BE TIGHTENED UP FROM EXCESS PLAY OR LOOSENESS I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU. AUTO ZONE.COM HAS A SECTION FOR THE "DIY".
