Hard vibration when turning right.

Post by red454 »

1994 SE - 213K miles.

Driving straight is fine - under hard acceleration, also fine.

Turning left, accelerating, no problems.

Turning right, accelerating (like on a cloverleaf - entering the highway) heavy vibration - let off the gas and vibration goes away.

No sounds or clicking, just vibration.

Bad axle / CV joint?

i had the same problem for a while too, turned out to be a bad lower passenger ball joint. Replaced and 90% went away, the rest is due to a possibly bad wheel hub/bearing.
