RJS5689 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Well I was getting on the highway the other night and once I got around the 60+ mark I noticed this awful harshness/vibration through the car. It wasn't doing it the night before and I haven't really done anything that would cause this. I hit a few larger bumps the previous day, but they didn't sound bad. The only thing I can think of is when I got hung up in the mud the other night. I got the car slightly stuck in my parking spot and had to work it free. My wheels LOVE to collect snow and I noticed they got lots of mud in there too. I'm thinking the extra unevenly dispersed weight is throwing my wheels off balance and causing it, just like the snow would do in the winter. Any suggestions? I think I'm gonna take it to the car wash later and clean those wheels out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zmarko Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Make sure all your lugs are torqued down to specs, some could have come loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pdizzleccc Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Yeah the mud could be it, also once you get the mud out if it's still really bad check the wieghts on the rims they can fall off too, and it's almost as bad...I learned the mud in the rims joke the hard way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
