Yes, warped rotors can cause vibrations even when not braking. This is due to the uneven surface of the rotors, which can create an imbalance in the wheel assembly as it rotates. As a result, drivers may experience a noticeable vibration through the steering wheel or the vehicle itself, particularly at higher speeds. Regular maintenance and inspection can help identify and resolve this issue.

not usually. warped rotors will cause a vibration during braking.


Why would your car vibrate after installing new brakes?

Were the rotors resurfaced or replaced, or just the pads? Warped rotors are the most common cause of vibration when braking


What would cause a 1993 Dodge half ton truck to have a vibration when slowing down?

If it is while you are braking, the rotors or druma are warped.


Van shakes when braking?

Vibration when applying brakes is most likely warped rotors. Another cause could be loose caliper bolts.


Will the rack and pinion steering system cause the rotors to warp or cause a shudder while braking?

Rack and pinion steering will not cause warped rotors. The tie rods, which are part of the system, can cause a vibration if the bushings on the ends are worn out. Warped rotors will do the same thing, and this will show up when applying the brakes.


Will back rotors cause shaking to?

If they are warped they can cause shaking when braking.


What would cause a vibration in slowing down a car?

Warped brake rotors.


What happens when the rotors are warped?

Warped brake rotors will cause pulsation (or vibrations at high speeds) when the brakes are applied. This may also go on to misalign the calipers and cause other vibration related damages.


What causes the front end to vibrate when braking?

Warped rotors is the most likely cause. Have the rotors turned or replaced and new pads installed.


Can warped rotors cause a slow acceleration?

Yes, warped rotors can contribute to slow acceleration. When brake rotors are warped, they can cause uneven braking, which may lead to increased drag on the vehicle. This additional resistance can impede the vehicle's ability to accelerate smoothly. Additionally, if the brakes are constantly engaging due to warped rotors, it can affect overall performance and responsiveness.


What would cause a 2003 maxima to shake when hitting the brakes?

A common reason is that the front rotors have warped. Go check out WikiAnswers on the topic of "warped brake rotors". Rotors should wear out smoothly in normal driving. Use of the brakes that generate lots of heat (hard braking, riding the brakes) will result in warped rotors.
