Diagnosis And Testing - Front Axle - 195FIA: Vibration

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Vibration at the rear of the vehicle is usually caused by:

Damaged drive shaft
Missing drive shaft balance weight(s)
Worn or out-of-balance wheels
Loose wheel lug nuts
Worn U-joints/CV joint
Loose/broken springs
Loose pinion gear nut
Excessive pinion yoke run out

Check for loose or damaged front-end components or engine/transmission mounts. These components can contribute to what appears to be an axle vibration. Also look at engine accessories, brackets and drive belts.

NOTE:

All driveline components should be examined before starting any repair.
