I have an 02 civic ex and recently replaced my control arm bushing and still have a front vibration. I have replaced all 4 tires and an alignmet. the ball joints were tight but needed new boots. the vibration is from around 50 to 75. any Idea's Could it be a CV joint/axle or wheel bearing?

 

bent wheel?

this vibration problem seems like semi-common occurence in our cars...

 

DID YOU BALANCE THE RIMS? SOMETIME IT HAPPENS BECAUSE YOU NEED TO BALANCE THE RIM. YOU NEED THOSE LITTLE WEIGHTS THEY PUT INSIDE THE RIMS. MAYBE THAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM IT HAS HAPPEN TO ME!!!!

 

I had them balanced when I got the new tires. I also had them rotate the front to the back to see if it was a bent rim but it is still there. I just noticed today I might have a front motor mount out. but I am not sure if it will cause the vibration. Anyone?

Very well could be your problem.

 

I replaced the Front Motor Mount along with both drive axles and front Rotor and pads. still have the front vibration at around 65. Anyone have the same problem? or any idea's. The only thing I have not replaced are the Ball joints and the Bearings. I have never replaced the struts could this be the problem?

 

I now have the Check engine light is on and with a 402 code insufficient air flow. Could this be part of the vibration problem I have? Does this code mean I have to replace my EGR valve or just clean the ports?

 

I've gotten a wheel alignment that turned out to be bs once I took it to someone else. The garage (big o tires, in pasadena, CA) ripped me off.

You can always recheck your alignment
Try seeing if ur rotors are warped

I doubt the 402 code will be part of your vibration. Yes you should clean your EGR Valve first and if that doesn't work, replace.

 

i doubt this cud be the answer BUT its a possibility, if u jsut got new tires it cud be there vibration, cuz some tires like Wanli's tend to make a loud noise or whining/ vibration sound right about 40-60ish MPH

idk about other tires but i used to have Wanli's and they made that noise, but the whining tends to go away in 2-4 weeks after the tires are kinda broken in

i think hankooks and i THINKKKK toyos make a whining for a week or so too

idk if this helps but mayeb it does

 

The rotors are New and I have already had it realigned. and still vibrates.

 

I got a used EGR valve from pick and pull cleaned it and installed to today. just cleared the code so we will see if that fixes the problem or the light comes back on. let you know.

 

well after replacing the EGR valve the light came back on about 5 miles later. Some code shows 401. Anyone know what's next? Clean the ports? What ports need to be cleaned?
