Car Shaking Problems

no the primary one is the one closest to the engine

Loose or worn rack and pinion, worn ball joints, warped rotor(s), bent rims, loose lug nuts, CV joints... and the list goes on.
Basically, you need to check out the front suspension/drive line/brakes.

cheap;, no heat dissipation,worn out rotors brake cylinder collapsed into the rotor

roumoured this fault is a recall? investigate

As long as it is safe, goes straight and tires are not wearing unevenly. I went over 50k . Avoid hitting curbs and pot holes. C

I would suspect a tire out of balance. Can also be a bent wheel, or a tire with a defect. Have the tires rotated/balanced, and the wheel/tires inspected for damage.

If it's misfiring AND running lean I'd suggest checking for a vacuum leak. Check the gasket between the manifold and the head, then check the EGR valve and make sure all of the vacuum lines are in good condition. Also verify that the power brake vacuum assist is in good condition and not leaking. A damaged power brake diaphragm can cause the engine to run quite lean.

I would suspect a tire out of balance or a bent wheel. Have the tires balanced and rotated and inspect everything.

There is 1 before the catalytic converter and 1 after it. The 1 before is called the upstream and the 1 after is the downstream.

jerking when accelerating is a transmission problem. Well, i am pretty sure it is. It could be other things but the transmission is where you should start. could be an ignition problem, if it is shuttering at low rpm. Mine does this and i have a cylinder 2 misfire. This could be plugs and wires or, getting more expensive, coil pack or distributer problems.

Possibly tie-rods and or ball joints. Maybe something else wearing out or loose underneath front end. Less likely is disc brake caliper sticking on affected side. In any case get it checked out because you may not be safe on the road.

No. You will only need to replace the brake shoes if they are worn down. Generally the front brakes do 70% of braking leaving the rear with 30%, which will cause the front pads to wear first. What is important however is that you replace either front brakes or rear brakes as a set. i.e. if you're replacing the front brakes do the right and left side.

a bad engine

Normally this is caused by a tire out of balance or a bent wheel.

Two possibilities. Your car's wheel might be of track, or your tire is flat and needs more air.

This can also be an out-of-balance wheel, broken sidewall belts on the tire, a worn ball joint, worn tie rod ends or a worn wheel bearing, among other things. Best to have it looked at by a qualified technician.

Yes

Check your power steering fliud, if it is low this could cause the vibration you are feeling.

It could be several things. the year make and model would need to be known for further diag. also the type of engine.

This is your tires, you may have a broken belt in your tire, or it just needs balancing when you go over a certain speed (say 60 or so) the tire becomes unbalanced and begins to vibrate, has happened to me lots of times, just a tire issue

look at the brake discs

i had to replace mine. it is a 10am yellow fuse. it is in the trunk. in the fuse box, where the spare tire is.

I had that problem on my car in the recent past. The source was the rotors, they had been warped. I would suggest getting them looked at.

rear axle simply refers to case at the rear bottom of a motor vehicle which comprise of gears mesh together that is responsible for the rotation of the motor vehicle road wheel. BY OLUKAYODE.

No, most likely it's the nut behind the wheel.

You could have a bad balancing job on them or have a broken belt in your tire(s). You feel these problems in your seat for rear tires, and in your steering wheel for you front tires.

Alignment will not cause vibrations. I think uour putting wheels on car that was not designed for them. Contact the wheel manufacturer.

OE wheels are hub centric to your vehicle and often times custom wheels are not installed with a "hub centric ring" The only true wy to center the wheels on your Passat is from the hub not the lug bolts. Go back to the place you bought your wheels and tires and ask them if they installed hub centric rings on your car. They are a must on any FWD vehicle and 90% of the time fix the problem. Last option would be to contact a shop with a road force balancer.

I placed American Racing wheels on my new Toyota Van and ever since have had trouble with the front tires vibrating at about 50mph and above. I have had the wheels balanced about 5 tires and on the fifth time it was better but then 4 months later the vibrating returns. I am convinced that some after market wheels just are not made for certain vehicles.

I have a 2001 PT Cruiser. When the original tires became worn, I opted to take the original steel wheels off and put new aluminum wheels on the car. The first set of custom wheels were 16", low profile tires. I felt like I was literally tearing the road up with my steering wheel. I could feel vibration in my steering wheel at all speeds, but when I hit about 68 mph on the freeway, things got really rough. I thought maybe a tire out of balance, but when cruising at any speed between 68 and 75, it would be smooth, then my steering would go wild, then smooth, to infinity. The vibrations in my steering wheel would last maybe 5 to 6 seconds at a time, then smooth out. I thought it was just the low profile tires, so got another set of custom wheels and new tires in 15" but, I could still feel some of the vibration I felt with the previous custom wheels and new tires. My husband said I was just too darn picky and I thought maybe he was right. Until... I had the new 15" wheels & tires rotated. The vibration came back with a vengeance! The tire dealer checked for tires out of balance and checked to see if the front-end was out of whack. Nothing wrong. I asked, could it be the wheels? No, they said, because they put these wheels on other PT Cruisers and no one ever complained. After another week of grinding the road up, I took my old, original wheels and tires out of the shed and put them back on my car. What a difference! Smooth as glass. I am taking the car in next week to have them take the new tires off the custom wheels and put them on the old rims.

I had some 185/65/15's 88 spokes (which are for sale :-P) and the same thing has happened to me. I noticed if you get some build up of dirt on the inside of the rim it will cause for a rough ride. Clean the rims not just on the outside but on the inside and take her for a ride.

Does your steering shimmy side to side if so you need a toe adjustment. And go back to the dealer and see if they have the eccentric ring for your rims.

I also had after market wheels on my Toyota Sienna Van and then put new tires on them. The first thing I was told is that after market wheels do not always center on the hubs. The second problem is that not all new tires are perfectly round. The problem was solved by having the tires mounted on the after market wheels and then the tire shop put them onto a tire trueing machine that cuts the tread or maybe a better way of putting is that the tire and wheel are trued to a perfect concentric cirlce are that way matched. All vibration went away. It was like riding on glass!
