Hi,
I have a 1993 Toyota Corolla with 265k miles on it. There is a vibration that has the following symptoms:
- it only occurs on the highway
- it starts gradually and increases in severity, then eventually fades away and disappears within 10 miles.
- it happens only occasionally, seemingly randomly, and when it does happen it happens at all speeds, not just a certain speed
- it appears to come from the front of the vehicle.
- you can feel it in the steering wheel AND the brake pedal
- it does not happen on local roads or at local roads speed
- when the vibration starts, you must bring the car to a complete stop to get rid of it. If you only slow down, to local road speeds (30-40mph) and then speed up again, it will still be present. The car must come to a complete stop in order to proceed without a vibration
- it happens in the cold and warmish weather (here in boston is in the
40s and 50s now. it happens in 30s, 40s or 50s)- i put in brand new front rotors and this did not cure it.
Please help. Email me with any advice that you can. Thanks!
-Jon
