Propeller Shaft Vibration

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Infiniti QX60. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:

If vibration is present at high speed, check propeller shaft runout first, then check mounting between propeller shaft and companion flange.

  1. Measure the runout of the propeller shaft tube at several points by rotating the final drive companion flange with your hands.

  3. Check the runout again. If the runout still exceeds specifications, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
  4. After installation, check for vibration by driving the vehicle.
