Shes got the shakes!
1996 Honda Accord Ex 2.2L Coupe over 200,000 miles!
I have replaced everything on my front end in hopes of relieving this intermittent shake. Any speed above 60 is guaranteed to cause the steering wheel to shake and omost everytime I press the brakes the steering wheel shakes pretty darn good. The front rotors both have just below .002 of runout and are only a couple months old also don't have have any brake pedal pulsations.The hubs have .001 or less runout...
I mention intermittent shake because opposite of the speed shake the brake shake sometimes doesnt occur mainly at high speeds or around 45-55 decelerating. The only thing I can think of that hasnt been replaced is the transaxle.. Does this sound like something that could be cause from a high mileage transaxle that slightly grinds in 5th..

Are you sure the bearings and all other suspension parts are tight and in good working order? I had a 1994 i bought a few years ago that had worn outer tire rid ends that made a healthy shake at speed.
Yes I have replaced the front one but the engine doesnt really torque unusually when revved. I figured if any others where bad it would be apparent but they all have about the same movements.
f it isn't the tire balance or bad rotors, it might be one or both tie rod ends, a worn ball joint, etc. The symptom sounds a lot more like suspension system than engine mounts to me. Watch Scotty Kilmer's YouTube videos on "How to check out your own car's suspension system"
all old bushings/mounts are likely done by now.
the lower front torque mounts were my problem.
since i didnt have a pot to **** in at the time i got
a couple tubes of dow u-428 window weld and
filled in the old mounts, works great if u r cheap as hell lol. 8)
