Toronto,
I've been experiencing violent shaking when suddenly braking on the highway. It's not that noticable below highway speeds. In fact it very faint.
This is what's been done:
New struts, tierod ends, steering rack, one of the lower ball joints, rotors, pads.
Idon't know what it could be?
Could it be bad bearings?
What are the symptoms of worn out bearings?
What else can I check?
I was testing it on the highway this morning.
If I got above 100km/h and brake, it shakes very violently. Below 100 km/h, there is no shaking almost at all. I have a manual rack, so you can feel the feedback in the steering a lot more.
While just driving, there is a very very faint vibration at highway speeds and almost none below 100km/h.
