chival:

I'm no pro, but I had a similar problem a few weeks ago. The vibration in my car was especially noticeable when reversing. Turned out to be a bad plug. I was afraid my engine mount was gone.

This is a different issue from what the op narrated

Dozieson:


Is it steering shake or whole car vibration?

Did you do any work on the car or car legs recently?

When last did you balance your tires ?

izaac23:


Yes, I have worked on the legs, I changed front shocks because they were bad

Yes, my car alignment and balancing was done recently

The shaking is coming from the engine compartment, not the stearing, and I have also checked my tires, they are all in good conditions

Although I just replace a set of old plugs I removed which was attest by another mechanic that it was better than the one I bought to replace, saying that they are follow come plugs.

Peppermintflav:
Your CV joints are bad change them.

Dozieson:



Scan to know if plug have issues.
Hope the shock work have not remove the car from balancing and alignment.
The cheapest way to solve this issue is to scan and get codes, then go and rebalance your car tyres

JAYUK:
Well,from similar experience,it's the driving shaft cups that's the culprit,you will change many things ,do alignment, wheel balancing,finally you end up changing the driving shaft to have peace of mind.

Oh... I see, that will be highly risky to touch

Dozieson:



Too risky.

To avoid stories that touches.

Use a very professional mechanic that works in a clean environment

Buy a new CV joint/shaft that is wrapped in a nylon. Tokunbo may have been contaminated.

Most mechanic are careless that is why you have to supervise the work

Also, allow the gear to cool overnight

RealityGod:


Please what’s the cost of the brand new? Is it two because I was told it’s two and tokunbo is 15k for both in Taraba as they don’t have new ones thanks.

Dozieson:


Which car are you using ?

jgbemson1:
I WOULD suggest you scan the car first

AutoMoTech:

@OP follow this advice.
Since you stated clearly the vibration is from the engine. And also usually when you want to throttle or climb a hill.
I fixed a similar problem recently on an 03 corolla.
Problem was the spark plugs. I replaced with original tokunbo NGK spark plugs and movement was swift.
However in your case pls scan and diagnose the issue first to narrow down the cause.
Whatever is being suggested that it is are only guesses. No go touch wetin no spoil.

izaac23:


I will do that tomorrow and get back to you.
But if it's not an engine problem, I doubt if the scan will show... Hence reason for this post to get ideas from experienced pple

AutoMoTech:

If it not na engine problem definitely it wont show on scan data na.
Just consult a competent tech to help you narrow it down.
I gave the above response "solely based on" the response you provided above.

izaac23:


It was detected by a mechanic that it was wat they call camba and engine sitting that spoil, he changed them and everything is normal now, no bouncing, no vibration whatsoever.
