Prius vibration problem

Any updates about the vibration issue? Mine is doing the same thing and I thought it was out of balance tires. I had them road forced balanced but my car still have the vibrations. Installed winter wheels and tires which were road force balanced by Tirerack and still have the vibrations.

 

maybe there's a heavy spot on one of your wheels. have them calibrate the machine first.

i wonder what happened to @rolawson law suit?

 

I may have said this earlier in the post, but I will say it again. My vehicle vibrated, at certain speeds, and it came from the rear of the vehicle. I installed the TRD anti-sway bar, and the vibration has never returned. Not to mention the improved handling ability.

 

That's not good. And two sets of tires/rims eliminates them. Unless you've got really bad luck, lol.

 

Check your tires for scalloping, had the same when my struts needed replacing. The helpfull people at Les Schwabe let me know $$$

Also check your drive axels $$$$

He was talking about the weight of the tires, not the tire pressures.

 

same exact problem even with new tires

 

Hi. What’s the update? Is it post #80 bad wheels and/or tires?

Just oicked up a 13 Persona that’s doing the same vibrating at certain speeds sometimes none but it’s annoying enough. Switched tires and sane issue

I’m about to get it roadforce balanced to determine if wheels and/or tires are the culprit.

My prior 08 with 285k miles didn’t have this issue.

Thanks!

 

I had a problem for a time with the CV joint. I found out when I reached up from underneath and found the right one(passenger) had worn to where it caused a vibration at speed.
