I had my tyre balanced & rotated and it's a bit smooth now as compared before. This morning when I used it I notice that vibration still occurs but not as harsh as before considering that my tyres has been balanced & rotated. Do you think that it's time for me to check the wheel bearing and ball joint? I really have no idea on what's happening to my car.

Does it make a roaring noise going down the road?

There was no noise at all, it's only the vibration on the steering wheel and one more thing is everytime I will make a full turn (left or right) the car body is vibrating as well. Is there something do do with the power steering.

No, I'd take it some where and have them look at the ball joints, wheel bearings, pretty much have them look at the whole front end of your car something some where is messed up.

If you're using the dealership, have one of the service managers ride with you so you can show them what the problem is. That'll save you from having to come back.

G'day,

my car's problem has been resolved by changing the oil in the rear differential and in the transmission. When I did a service in my 80,000km the auto service (not a honda dealer) failed to replaced the differential and transmission oil which was already due.

The rear diff was what was prolly causing the noise. But before you had that stuff done did you think the tranny was shifting hard?

not much, pardon my ignorance but this is my first time to handle auto trans, I bought the car in auction with 70000K on the clock. When they changed the rear differential oil the car body shaking when in full turn was removed. Then we have a road test the stirring vibration was still there so they checked the transmission oil and found out that it needs to replace, so that's what they did. Finally, we had a road test again and the stirring vibration was gone and back to smooth driving again.
