94 ACCORD STEERING WHEEEL VIBRATING-PULLING HARD TO THE LEFT SLOWLY GETTING WORSE NOISY.

ANY IDEA WHAT'S CAUSING THIS RATHER SUDDENLY? THE STEERING WHEEL SORT OF SHIMMEYS AND IS DIRECTLY PARALEL TO THE SPEED /TIRE ROTATIONS.

IS IT DASNGEROUS? IT'S BEEN SLOWLY PROGRESSING AND IM A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT SOMETHING BLOWING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY. IS IT MAYBE A CV JOINT/BOOT PROBLEM TIRE PROBLEM? I TOOK A QUICK LOOK AT THE TIRES...THEY SEEM FINE.

SHOULD I TAKE TO A TIRE SHOP? ALIGNMENT?...ETC??

PLEASE HELP!

 

Take it to a alignment/tire specialty shop and explain to them exactly what you're telling us.. I'm sure they can eyeball the problem.

 

Here is what you need to do;

1) stop writing in caps

2)Dont listen to "Diversion"

3) take a wheel off and inspect everything.. ball joints upper and lower look for any cracked boots and feel for play in them

4) axles check for any torn cv boots

5) sway bar links check to make sure they are not all dried up and worn away..

6) check for play in the tie rods replace if need be

7) most important.. do a full brake job.. my wheel was doing the same thing and I did a full brake job pads and rotors and all the typical accord wheel shake has now gone away.. remeber when buying brake parts please please please do not get the cheap chinese **** rotors and pads.. get proper american made stuff like wagner and thermoquiet.. this combo works great for me!
- Also a tip.. when removing the old rotors since honda had a *** in the engeineer department when they made our cars you have to take the hub and bearing off.. the best way to do this is to get a hub puller and a slide hammer.. bolt the puller to the hub and screw the slide hammer in and it should come out in 3 pulls or so.. works like butter!

follow those steps and you car will be really happy with you.

I just did everything.. rotors/pads/ balljoints/ control arms/ tie rods/ swaybar links/ axles ..the works and it took me an afternoon but now my car is so happy.

Good luck.

 

take a longer look at the tires,,,,,,it sounds like a separated tire to me
