Hi all,
yes another vibration question. I've been searching this site for a while now about this, and have taken note of whats been said.
I have a 96 Intrepid 3.5, 145K miles. Under acceleration at 30 mph, and at 50-60 Mph there is a severe vibration. not in the steering wheel or the brakes. It feels like its right under your feet. The whole car shakes quite violently. Doing s turns at that speed does not diminish or enhance the vibration. So to me it does not appear to be caused by one side of the car or the other. If youre going 50-60, and let off the gas it goes away.
I have replaced the cradle bushings, inner tie rod bushings, rotated and balanced the tires, checked engine and trans mounts, theres no freeplay in the front wheel bearings, or strut rod bushings...I am about to change axles..
The left front strut pops on turns, but I've never had a car that had this problem caused by a bad strut.
When I changed the cradle bushings, the vibration was much less for about 50 miles, then came back just as bad as before.
Anyone with info, please reply. My wife loves this car and drives 150 miles a day to work and back. I can fix it, but dont want to replace all the front end parts to keep it going.
Thanks!!!
