1998 Toyota Camry - Steering Wheel Vibration?

Stoff

I was told that Camry's are notorious for having bad "mounts" which leads to steering wheel vibration. The wheel alignment, balance and rotation did nothing. The problem is exactly how it was before. What "Mount" are they talking about and about how much is the part?

tell me, does this vibration happens when u apply the brakes, or turn the steering wheel or is it constant?















and if it constant, does it appear at low or high speed?

Definitely sounds like a mount, could be transmission (i believe) or motor, not too familiar with Toyota because i never owned one but pop your hood a see whats closest to the part of your car that is vibrating.































Any mechanic should be able to tell you which one it is by taking a look and running the car. But to see the mounts damage they would have to remove it. Mounts are not too expensive, but depending on which one it is and the difficulty to reach it, the labor might be pricey, and if one if the mounts is broken, you might as well replace them all. Broken mounts will eventually mess up your car.































Check out Advance Auto Parts, Auto Zone, Pep Boys etc for mount pricing, you'll have to know the specs of your tranny/motor.
