armandanvil Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Stearing wheel wobbles back and forth violently at 75-80 sometimes....not when mechanic is test driving of course. Intermittent problem, does not do it all the time. This problem is dangerous at freeway speeds. Knowledgeable mechanic has checked tie rods, axles....everything on front end appears good....need help..! Otherwise car is in very good shape.

lenore Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Could be defective tire. Have you rotated tires to see if there is a change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armandanvil Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 Thanks for the suggestion, but tires have been rotated and problem persists. Also noticed that when wheel starts to wobble at freeway speed, upon applying brake wobble seems to get worse until slowing down quite a bit, then will pull over and stop and start up again as if nothing has happened, even up to freeway speeds once again. Intermittent problem with no apparent trigger....???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBak Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Having same problem with my 2005 RX330. Did you find a solution? I have replaced all rotors and pads as well. I am Still having the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX400h Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I would take it to a good alignment shop. They tend to be experts at suspension and alignment component issues that cause drivability problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Andrews Really Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I too have same type of issue. Mine is a 2001 RX300 AWD. Seems to happen only when on a right slow turn at freeway speeds. I had alignment done and had wheel bearings checked. Had tires rotated and pressure raised to 35 pounds. Mechanics want to change differential oil along with change transmission fluid and filter/gasket. Car has 89000 miles and looks great.
