hi folks, could do with a some advice please.

 

was driving my 94 celica 2.0 auto on m25 yesterday. had done about 20miles when suddenly started to get a rumbling through steering at about 75mph. thought i had a puncture so pulled over to check but all seemed ok. when i pulled off again car was fine up to about 50mph but under any load i.e acceleration, above that could feel a juddering. the more power i put on the worse it got. felt like the whole bloody car was shaking apart :( when i eased off it stopped. only seems to be at speeds above 50mph??? the engine seems fine throughout, not missing or anything. thought maybe driveshaft ??

 

any ideas would be greatly appreciated cos its my daily runner and if i cant sort it will have to put the miles on the Z :eek:

 

cheers in advance

Could be something so simple like a balancing weight coming off a front wheel - I had this happen on my old Supra. It drove like shit until I got the wheel rebalanced.

 

Richard :cool:

thanks m8,

think all the wheels are the same size. i'll try swopping front to back.

nick, if one went flying off, then this might be what your experiencing at higher speeds.

 

So it'd prolly be easier to fire down to Kwik Split and get them to check out the balance first rather than changing the wheels around... well thats what I'd do cos im a lazy sh*te :D
