im having a major problem and i dunno wtf it could be and im so stressed out and pissed of
so my front drivers side wheel is shaking and makin a noise when driving between 10-50mph then after 50 its smooth
i dunno what it could be, i just changed my shocks and my brakes and rotors, i got new tires. the rim isnt bent. i checked it today when i was gettin my tires. i mean its killing me already! i know my alignment is off and i have to do it but before that i have to get fixed what ever it is. the tire rod isnt loose the whole wheel moves when it was lifted up as if something wasnt holding it, wobbly. also after driving for like 10 mins the slip vdc/ light go on and also the last few weeks my airbag light is flashing! so i dunno wtf else to check for and its killing me. gimme some advice guys!

 

I'll go and guess compression rod or a sway bar end link.

 

it is a little loose but is it going to be just that ball joint or the whole compression rod?
i mean the wheel is makin a crazy *** loud noise and the car front drivers side feels as if the wheel isnt screwed on and feels wobbly its really stressing me out

 

do the alignment, it could be part of the issue and check you hub assembly for play, with all of the vibrations you want to check you hub assembly. It is just a thought.

 

Could also be a wheel bearing...

 

checked that also and its good and tight! could it be tire rod end? it looks as if the part that the compression rod top one goes into is all loose! like that whole part that holds the rotor and the hub and the caliper

 

/\ they said above, i would be sure to check the hub assembly including the wheel bearing. i personally would find the issue before getting the alignment, because if remove a suspension part, chances are good that you will have to get it re-aligned.

 

Does it make a humming noise when driving it? Jacking up the car, can you grab the wheel/tire at the top and bottom and shake it...does it wiggle?

If yes to the above, it could be a bad wheel bearing as 4DGS pointed out

 

the sound is a mixture of driving on a flat, loose bent wheel, and as if the rotors were warped and when youre stoppin the car shakes,
it feels like- when you have warped rotors when youre stoppin from 70-0 (but youre driving instead of stopping)
if that makes sense guys
the wiggle is from right to left not so much from top to bottom,
i was checking the hub and its nice and tight could it be the tire rod end and even though there is no play on the ball joint it could be that?

yeh guys i dont wanna do the alignment cause theyll have to realign it if i have to change anything

 

like its really upsetting! i mean my car has 104k and this is the only problem i have is the suspension/steering. which im pretty happy about up to this point. besides for window motor and headlight bulb (no big deal)
but its so frusturating when you have a 93 nissan maxima at home that hasnt had a single problem w/ it and its 10 yrs older and 70k more miles on it.
i dont drive my car hard, i dont track it, its really stressing me out. im talkin about i cant sleep at night because i keep thinking about what it could be and hoping it doesnt cost much money to fix.
sorry for venting here

 

I hate to ask the obvious, but have you re-torqued all your wheel lugs?

 

lol yes

 

the drivers side wheel has been off like 5 times in the last week thats not it

 

not to be capt. obvious, if it wiggles riight to left and not up and down. check your steering inner socket (it attaches to your steering "gear housing assy. (rack and pinoin)) It has a ball joint (so to speak) if you can move it, it is bad

 

so the outer tie rod?
