Well guys..I just bought this car a few weeks ago.. It first started when I was not pressing the gas pedel it would shake violently and now its doing it all the time.. I looked at the motor mounts and they seem fine.. tommorow I will have time to crawl underneath. axles, trans,wheel bearings, anything else to check any recomandations on what to check first?

 

make sure there are no leaks inside the spark plugs

care to elaborate?

 

you need to explain the shake more... and explain when it does it and how fast you are going and what rpms its ar ect

 

it does it al the time from 5mph to 70mph which is the fastest I have been in it.. It sounds like a loud knock to kinda like the axles are beating something

 

Shaking can be caused by a number of things. They include, but are not limited to:

1. Out of balance wheel
2. Bent wheet
3. Bad tire
4. Bent hub
5. Bad, or simply loose, wheel bearing
6. Warped brake rotor
7. Bad shocks
8. Worn bushing(s)
9. Bad axle
10. Alignment problem.

 

take your car to a shop immediately.

 

look man, i have been really cool and calm about this whole deal...you have had the 2600 for the last two weeks and the car for the last month and a half or so. I have emailed you, called you, PMED you and you are not calling me or writing me back...what the hec is going on??? you mention that it will be done at the end of the week, but how is that possible if you don't even know the color or have the passenger side mirror to finish the job? dude, do us both the favor and get back in contact to me, the contact has decreased increadibly ever since you got the money im not liking it one bit, this is the same thing the last painter did who screwed me over, not saying that you are going to do the same, but it is running the same track....hit me up...thanks

Greg

 

I bet a wheel is out of balance or you have tweaked a suspension component. Can you pinpoint the area that causes the shaking? Suspension or drivetrain?

But first, before you do anything, take care of your customers

 

understand one thing bud, im not trying to bash you or your company one bit, ive had faith in you and the guys you work with to get the job done and i can't complain one bit about the kick *** deal you are giving me to fix my ride. I just need to know what is going on, that is it...please don't take offense to anything, im not pissed, just need to be updated of this situation....thanks dude...call me up soon, or pm me, or hell, email me g8jones@hotmail.com

 

GREG please dont resort to this.. dude you know how busy I am.. I mean I havent doine you wrong and dont ever plan on doing anybody wrong... your car may not be done this week because I havent decided on a color and a mirrior is the last of my worries.. the main part is all the rust I said I will fix even though it wasnt included in the price I quoted you.. trust me you will be more than happy for what you will get... yes I own my ownb buissness.. but I also work other jobs.. I am very busy I am not avoiding you at all.. my phone dosent pick up worth a **** im not AVOIDING YOU AND IM CALLING RIGHT NOW!!!

 

im not exactly sure but the rubber ring(it goes between the engine and the head) was really old, so oil got into my spark plugs causing misfire and you also want to check your engine rotor(where the plugs go into) and caused it to shake during idle and during acceleration. Its cheap to fix!

 

A bad spark plug will not cause voilent steering shake you moron. It will cause a missfire. The engine simply struggles to stay alive or dies. It won't rock the car back and forth...wow, honda-tech is finally starting to get to me...maybe I need a break.

mine did when i was at a red light or something. If its not spark plugs it the distrubutor.

I had the valve gasket, distrubutor and spark plugs replaced so you tell me whats causing it then.

 

lol make sure the lugnuts are tight... lol

 

i had the same issue with this integra i purchase while back.. had bad intermediate shaft broken bent axle and wheel bearing went out. all on the driver side. i replace all those and wa la ...problem fix. gl

U should just look under ur car and check those points out.

Second that, stop driving it around at least until you figure it out.

That too, someone [i think, pretty sure] tried to steal my HX wheels and got scared away before figuring out how to get them off. Both driver's side were loose, the front more so, and I had no idea... until I got on I-87 and my car shook so much the CD player refused to play. It continued until I stopped and looked, and they were on by 2-4 threads each. Check the simple things, but STOP DRIVING THE CAR.

I agree lol. I also cant believe you took it up to 70 mph with that shaking...All eyes must've been on you, lol.

 

Could be everything on Stomin Matt's list plus -

11. bad ball joints*
12. bad tie rods*

*have your car looked at immediately by a professoinal. If either of these fail you will lose control of the carand kill yourself or someone else. I'm not kidding....

 

also loose nuts on your wheels i had two loose nuts on my rear left and when ever i was stomp it or slow down it would knock and wobble
