Steering wheel vibration 2013 SR5

Postby goldiedg on Sat, 21 Sep 2019 4:07 +0000

G'day guys

I have a 2013 Dual cab SR5 Auto

I'm having some difficulty in finding the source of a vibration. The vibration is felt through the entire vehicle, steering wheel, seats etc and makes the steering wheel wobble. It is most noticeable when the car is cold then decreases slightly once the engine has warmed up, or maybe the tyres? Anything above 95km/hr it starts to get quite bad.

I've had all four wheels balanced 4 times by 4 different shops and rotated and the vibration is exactly the same.

I am running King steel wheels with the imitation beadlock (yep they are hard to balance but the last shop reckons they are bang on).

Tires are Pirelli Scorpian AT only 2 months old, had MT before and same problem

On the freeway when i turn say left,the vibration actually disappears then slowly comes back as i vear right or go straight.

So if the balance was out the vibration wouldnt disappear.

Where do i go from here?

Cheers Dave

Borrow a set of wheels off someone amd try it. Mate if mine had a similar problem for years and it went away after his last set of tyres. Could have been rims or tyres we don't know but it's now gone.
