¨Problem with the steering... i think

[reneee]

Hi... i just have my glanza about a week and i have the first problem with it.
When i go about 70-80km/h the steering wheel begins to shake, and the whole ride vibrates till i stop... i cant go over 80km/h im going crazy!! do someone know what its all about??

sounds more like the tyres. how old are they?? they maybe worn and out of balance. if they are good then maybe they just want balancing.

first port of call is a full alignment and if you want to get your wheels balanced before then this should sort the problem--if not you need to address suspension issues possibly.

alignment WONT cause wheel vibration that is wrong.

it will be either bad balancing of the wheel, a distorted or buckled wheel/tyre or possibly a worn suspension item.

but the tracking being out wont cause it till vibrate

get your wheels balanced and check your wheel nuts. when the steering wheel shakes it's normally the wheel balance out. if the wheel was knackered you'd feel it way earlier.

In order of cost, check the following:

1) Tyre pressures/balancing
2) Tyre condition
3) Camber and alignment
4) Buckled rim
5) Worn/damaged suspension components

If only when applying the brakes it could be a warp in your brake discs causing the vibration.

yer thats just your wheels are imbalanced.

no worry.
you need to start from the wheel balancing.
i think it ll be ok after that.
i got same problem before but for me it was when im runnig after 110 kmhr.
now its ok after the balancing....

i've bought new tires, the pressure is ok, well balanced and aligned. but the problem is still there. I think its a suspension part is in bad condition, or some problem with the steering. The car shakes so much that i got to stop completely.
