Vibrations
Wednesday, May 10, 2006 3:02 PM
So, I recently replaced my passenger side wheel bearing to clear up an awful noise up front. Well, after getting rid of that, a new noise/vibration surfaced. Perhaps it was masked by the previous problem, but none the less it's there and it's messing up my ride. I've got a '02 cavy, by the way. The noise presents itself only when I turn my wheels to the right, but this time it isn't coming from the front, it's in the back wheels. I can feel it and hear it coming from that general direction. It's really annoying and makes the ride 10 times less smooth. Also, what could be a whole seperate problem, when I break at a traffic light or any other standard breaking procedure; my entire dash vibrates. It's not a loud noisy vibration, but I can see the dash and the rear-view mirror both vibrating heavily. It also feels like I'm rolling over small speed bumps during this course of breaking, when I am, of course, not. Anyone have any idea about what either of these problems could be? Mayb'e some suggestions so I could start fixing them? Let me know something.

Woooo bubbies.

Vibration while braking is most likely warper brake rotors.....also..that "other" noise your hearing is also most likely from the front end. I doubt it would be from the rear as the rear hubs are fairly simple.

I'll look into getting some new rotors. Thanks for finally coming in with some input. The reason I think it's from the rear end is because I recently replaced both wheel bearings with brand news ones from Advance. I had some noise up there and that cleared it up. It's pretty distinct inside the car. I truly believe it's in the back.
