Vibrations in steering wheel when i cut the wheel, where is it coming from ?
 

I noticed recently my car is having some pretty strong vibrations in the wheel when i cut the wheel to the left enough (have to turn it just enough), and the wheel will vibrate and feel like crap. It seems to do it more on higher speeds, i cut the wheel and it just feels like somethings not right at all when the wheel is vibrating.

I dont know what it could be , if is possible for the lower ball joints to cause this or could be something else.

I have my power steering taken off, but i never did cap off /loop the spots i took the ps hoses off of on the rack.


Anyone have any ideas ? It is very noticeable and i dont want it to get worse, want to fix it asap.

i have a similar problem, mine makes a noise/vibration as if i didnt have fluid in my p/s pump, but only does it when turning to the left, like yours. its an intermittent thing too, doesnt always happen. i have no idea what it is.

we need to figure out whats wrong.

I figure it could be one or a combination of these things.

1. maybe the steering column needs to be tightened more ?

2. maybe my car needs wheel alignment

3. lower ball joints are bad (but i cant tell)

4. because of having power steering taken off (pump and hoses)

someone help please

now after driving again i dont think it matters if you cut the wheel or not , the vibration is still there when the wheel is straight but is less noticeable , at higher speeds gets worse and when you cut the wheel gets worse

could a really bad front wheel alignment cause this ?

im planning on getting it checked out on friday
