Not on Rt 95 at all. Rt 8 and good road. It had the same problems with the other tires. Any balancing or rotating would help for a short time. I wasnt sure what a rotor change entailed but see its not too bad so will do that.

Bet that one also wears pads differently too. Anything that turn with the wheels is involved. IDK, most brakes are a bracket holding the pads and caliper over that. When that's out of the way might be a screw to hold rotor + need an impact driver at this age. The other thing is if no screw holding it rust builds between hub and inside of rotor it would show a wobble if spun by hand. You've done all that I hope? If you go for rotor(s) best to do both clean off with a gasket scraper the hub surface and just a smear of grease (just that little) it won't rust up soon again in there. Rotors are likely vented ones in front and not in rear doesn't matter alone. It's the one side different than the other. A dragging brake could be intermittent but leave evidence I've pounded on EVIDENCE a single bad rotor is one of the dozens of things that would or could cause "shake" - "pulse" feeling usually changes when you use brakes. FYI - brakes alone can domino into lots of stuff to toss out. Flex hoses, if uneven do those up totally! Cars cost huge bucks to keep up to super high expectations of road manners at age and miles. DIY or not it isn't cheap nor is buying new all the time! Tom greasy one User May 30, 2022, 8:35 PM Post #28 of 29 (1224 views) Re: Car shake Sign In   Not sure when I will bother with rotor now. Crazy car is running even smoother than yesterday. Now if this keeps up the way it is, I can live with it now. Gonna keep an eye on any tire wear.

Learn tires: Search out a good pic show or video on very fine clues they leave. Tire places usually fail at it! Wish I was joking - I'm not! We are about done here on this if getting better it would be harder now to zoom in on now. So move on as you said you'd keep an eye on it be ready to jump when it changes, Tom 1 2  View All   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
