Sources of Vibration

[Rubare]

now i have read many threads about vibration on the FX.. so ill will post a few solutions for a few vibration problems that i have encounter.

1.Vibration when breaking:

The Cause of This problem is usually Rotors or( bad pads?)

Solution: change your pads.. if the problem persist you could take your FX to a mechanic shop and get the rotors shaved, this is just a bandaid for a big wound(temporary solution) so i just simply recommend for you to buy new Rotors.

2.Vibration when accelerating(usually from 60-80mph)

The causes of this problem are suspencion alignment, wheel tires balanced, HUB assembly.

Solutions: Get a alignment.

for the wheel and tires balanced: make sure your tires dont have anything inside(ie water) just happenned to me recently one of my tire had a nail in it.. and somehow during the rain water got in it making the wheel unbalanced which cause the vibration when i used to accelerate.

Solution: get your tires and wheel check and balanced.

Wheel HUH assembly: along with this vibration problem you will hear this annoying sound coming from the side the wheel hub have gone wrong..

Solution: Replace your wheel HUB.

for all IS member feel free to correct me and/or post your experience and solutions for vibration problems. ill be updating this thread everytime i encouter a different vibration problems. hope you find this helpfull.

Here's another source of vibration. After doing all the other things (hub assembly replacement, tire rotation and balancing, brake rotors replacement) and my problem still not resolved, I am starting to believe that this is the problem.

Problem: Vibration felt from slow speed to about 65 mph and starts to disappear after 65+ mph. The higher the speed the less the vibration and at around 80 mph the vibration almost completely disappeared.

Solution: Driveshaft U-joint, lubricate or replace.
