Control Arm bushings. You probably feel it when you brake hard, speed bumps, etc.... |

Either you've got warped rotors or you Control Arms have a problem. When my control arms went out I got a constant vibration through the steering wheel

 "metal"- I think you should do away with the speculation and get under there . . only one way to find out for sure what the culprit is. I would guess either control arm bushings or tie rod ends. Bad wheel bearings will do that too, but that would be more pronounced through the brake pedal.

Bushes
Change the lower control arm bushes there silver and 2 bolts, warning they are pressed on and mechanic will ahve to do it. Get someone to stand outside the car and put in R and Drive with brakes one you will see wheel move a shocking amount. Or Turn wheel 45 degrees and kick wheel it will move. Put your head underneath while mate kicks tyre you will see IT. About $600 labour and parts |
