Im about to tackle this job, Saturday on a 98 Corolla (mine is split apart and just started clanking doing left turns, I hope its not how I will always remember Memorial day weekend, lol.
hello, i have a werid thing on my 01 corolla. the driver side only, the axle is on a diagonal angle pointing backwards. I dont know why, the wheel has play. Help please! nothing seems broken or making any weird noises. i just got the car a few weeks ago
Take it to a mechanic and ask them to do an inspection related to your concern. Be specific you don't want any work done just someone to have a look at it for you. Stay safe
Hi, ive got a 2001 corolla sport. When i hit 65mph the steering wheel & (it seems) the passenger side of the car starts shaking/vibrating & gets worse if im dumb enuf to go faster. A friend just told me he thinks its the cv axel. Its done this the last 40k miles & has 120k on it. It doesnt leak & rides fine as long as i dont speed lol. The tires wear evenly so will a bad cv axel cause this problem & as long as i drive slow & it doesnt shake will it continue to be ok & reliable? Im on disability & will have to save to have the repair done. Altho im tempted to try fixing it myself after watching your video. Thx paul
A lot of times an issue like that is actually bad tires. A lot of times a small bubble will form between the layers of the tire and cause the car to vibrate at certain speeds (usually higher speeds). If money is an issue, try a tire rotation (it's free if you do it yourself). If the issue improves or gets worse, then you'll need new tires.
