im having a vibration problem at low speeds (still) the axle had popped out of the trans and now i hear a popping sound and i feel it in the wheel. the axle is in the trans and it is installed all the way it hasent popped out again and i havent been drving it other than attempts to diagnose the issue. could a boken axle cause a shake?

thanks

 

yeah.. sounds like it.. if its popping like that, then it sounds like the inner cv joint got screwed.. you would probably have to replace it..

you can TOTALLY break an axle and not tear the boot, FYI.. lol

 

broken ankle with good skin?

 

put the poping out is the thing that gets me it still drives it just drives kinda screwy definatly not right im just tryin to figure out how it would pop outta there....

 

maybe the circlip is messed up on the axle.. is it a swap? the wrong axles may have been put in it

 

its a b18b1 in my 91 DA9
i thought i found the cause a week ago the rear rca bolt was broken and the rear arm was hanging down ive repaired that already it seems better but not all there

they are OEM axles they have the little rubber thing on halfway between them

 

Absolutely possible. A car as old as the ones many of us drive around could easily have had axles replaced 2, 3, 4 times. Many times people get remanufactured axles because of the price difference, and to be honest reman. axles are usually junk. I have had remanufactured and even new axles cause a vibration, so it is very possible that the used ones in your car are causing a vibration. Good luck!

 

guess i might as well change them and freshen up my suspension wile im at it 188k it all probably pretty ragged lol guess ill park it and rip the front end apart again lol

i have had 2 sets oreilly axles they were great (2 different cars) now the axles i got from autozone they sucked they felt like they werent even lunricated these of course were on different cars ive owned in the past

 

lift the front end and spin the wheels, try with the steering from lock to lock, check for binding. If there is something wrong then you should be able to feel it.
