Default chassis vibrating on corning... LEFT and RIGHT

it vibrates more so turning hard right then left, at first i thought it was my crappy 185/60/14 inch tires but i put my friends rims with azeni sport tires on and it did it even worse..... the sound is similar to when you Roll your R's when you speak like RRRRRRRR (anyone that has an asian mom will know what im talking about my mom does it all the time too) and the vibration is as if someone was running a small air chisel or similar in the car..... any idea, my thought is maybe worn bushings? TIA

hard to say. best thing is to jack up the car, put it on some stands and turn all the way left and spin the wheels in 1st gear. if it doesn't make any noise the suspension prob needs to be compressed and something is rubbing when turning.

Is the car lowered? make sure it isn't rubbing on the wheel liners

Okay heres some helpful info.

Do what the other guy just said.........As a technician its hard enough to diagnose a vibration/squeak/rattle/clunk while I am actually driving a customers car....

So do you realize how impossible it is to give you any help not even being around the car or driving it?

If you want I could list off about 150,000 things that could be happening right now.

You need to first do what the other guy posted, then let us know if you noticed or found anything wrong. Trial and Error man.....no one is going to solve this problem for you over the computer.

whe you say its binding do you mean spinning or at the cv joint? best bet is to get a reman axle and swap it in quick style. If it didn't solve your problem clean it up and return it and keep looking

I would check lug nuts to make sure your not missing any or that there not over torqued.

my car would vibrate and I thought it was my cv joint/axles too. It ended up being 3 broke wheel studs. oh yeah and my tire came off well I was driving!
