Wheel Shimmy on 05' Civic
After having my tires rotated, I'm experiencing a shimmy starting at a little
over 40mph and maxing out around 50. Of course, I take it to Pep Boys (bad move right off the bat), for a balance and actually watch the mechanic do it. Well, the steering wheel still wobbles and PB says that they're balanced and they can't do much more. What do I do now? Could it be something other than the tire balance? Thanks. |

Move them front to back one side at a time then drive to find the bad one. More than likely a seperated belt in one of the tires, or a bent wheel. Not a balance problem. Always go back to the last action before the problem appeared and start troubleshooting there. Let us know what you find. Cheers Stevo |
