king bee66 Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 this is something that start a month ago or so, every morning when im backing out of my parking space the car starts to gitter. not shake, its very slight; but there. the vibration seems to be isolated to the front drivers side. it lasts a few seconds and then goes away. it only happens in reverse and after the car has been sitting for awhile. right now its just annoying, im hoping i can take care of it before something else happens Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Are you talking about like a brake caliper hanging up or frozen ? :huh: Quote Link to comment
king bee66 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 doesnt feel like its coming from the brake but i guess thats a good start Quote Link to comment
FoxyRoadster Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 might be a drum freezing up, I know mine occasionally do that on my vw when it sits for a while. Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 I bet you have a jitter. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment
king bee66 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 yeah, it could be parkinsons. i should get that checked out. might be a drum freezing up, I know mine occasionally do that on my vw when it sits for a while. its definitely coming from the front so it would have to be a disk brake Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 Well, rotors flash rust pretty quickly. It could be related to that, and check your wheel bearings. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 Try backing in to park and see if it does it when you drive forward. You have a standard and not an auto tranny? Raise the front and see if the wheels spin freely after it's been sitting overnight. Specially spin it in the direction if you were backing up. Are there any tight spots?? Quote Link to comment
