Wobling at 100km speed

[Raj Yadav]

I am owning Chevy Aveo 1.4 Petrol version 2007. For the last some days expericing wobling at front right side at the speed of 100 km above and also while applying brakes at above 50km speed. Got my brake pad, caliper, wheel alignment and balancing checked but couldn't get the problem rectified.

How is the CV axle? This started to happen in my Silverado, the boot was torn and I lost 3 bearings. The front wheel wobbled and eventually started to force me off the road. ( I didn't know too much about suspension, until then. I suggest looking behind the wheel, look for any grease. You should be able to see it pretty well. Other things you can look at is your tie rods, after awhile you will notice uneven tire wear ( again I learned the hard way with my Camaro ) Those are the only things I can think of offhand. I hope that helps. The only other thing I can think of is a bent rim (which if you got your wheels balanced they should have told you if you had one.) Doesn't hurt to double check though. Just look around the outer and inner edge of the rim with your wheel covers off.

I just learned the other day that I have to spend over $1000 USD to repair the front end of my car. All the bushings are worn down (160k+ miles on the odometer).

I haven't the slightest clue if the previous owner took care of such items.


Also, I found that the plastic wheel covers force the tires to be unbalanced. I made a ~2500 mile trip in the car and I did so after taking the wheel covers off. I did not want to be stuck with replacing a tire in the middle of nowhere.
