Kodybarbera Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 at 50+mph, I'm getting a shaking in the wheel. I originally assumed it was my tires being off balance, well after getting new wheels and tires, it is still doing it just as bad. Also, occasionally when the vehicle is hot (after running it for an hour or so) it likes to buck and wants to stall out. My dad thinks it's the axle causing the problem. has anyone else had a problem like this? I plan on changing my diff oil this coming weekend so I'm gonna check out the axles. thanks!

apexi Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Did some googling and came up with bad lower or upper control arm(s) or their bushings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Your bucking problem is hard to figure out. It must be something the heats up over time and causes something to breakdown. Next thing could be wiring heating up or sensor body opening up a crack and opening the circuit. I'm just guessing. But look at the cheap easy stuff first. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Kodybarbera Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 I originally thought it was my mass air flow or air filter. but I noticed it only likes to do it when it's hot. I'm going to change the diff oil to see if maybe it's getting too thin when hot. and I also have no idea the last time it was changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodybarbera Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 I also was thinking maybe the torque converter but I really have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
