hard vibrations when flooring it from a stop
hard vibrations when flooring it from a stop
Alright, I searched and could not find something similar to my problem on here. I did a burnout and then a few minutes later went home after work. Hitting hard on the acceleration from stop causes front end (or so it seems) to vibrate. Next day trying again, vibrations are still there, still fairly hard, easiest way is to hold gas a bit down with brakes and then let go of brakes, or just from a stop hit gas all the way.
It does not vibrate when I am already moving and hit the accelerator hard, or when stopped and revving up, just when going from stop.
I am thinking it could be tires or joints but would love to get some info before starting to change everything.
Thanks,
Pat

Re: hard vibrations when flooring it from a stop
so I was in the shower (after taking apart brothers SUV and fixing body) and then it hit me
I was installing new brake pads earlier this week, and took off the front driver side one, and had to reinstall it back because from the pads I got, 1 had a tip bent and wouldnt be able to replace all of them, so I am thinking it could be that maybe they are tightened too much/not enough or the clip maybe fell out. I will check brakes (have new pair to install) and maybe it doesnt roll when in the air, because it touches the pads causing to vibrate when i accelerate rapidly from a stop...
will let you all know how it works out
