This is due to poor settings of the wheel bearings,tyres,- check balancing once again, wheel drums/ brake pads,suspension , joints and steering.
In all the entire front suspension must be checked, the WHELL ALIGNMENT must be checked with precision and each of the wheels must be checked for damage on hub, axle or chassis.

Sounds like brake rotors are warped. At lower speeds does the steering wheel wobble when you apply the brakes. If so then this the problem.

Could be brake rotors warped. Could be bad u-joint in a driveshaft, too.

What is the cause of continual thumping (appears to be coming from back of car) and violently shaking?

Many times, rear tires that are out of round or severely cupped or feathered, or that are out of balance can create this type of issue. My first recommendation would be to have them and the wheels on the rear of the car inspected. There may not seem like there is much wrong visibly if you look at just the tread of the tires, but a good tire tech can spin them up and give you some solutions, and the inspection itself is inexpensive. Hope this helps.

1995 mustang while driving sometimes it feels like I'm driving over rumble sticks on road. What may cause this

Driveline vibration- worn U joints, normal wear in transmission, wheel bearings, etc.

Depending on speed when it appears and disappears and how wide the throttle is at the time can all affect the appearance of it

If you only bubble balnced your tires, it could be that simple. Dynamic balancing should eliminate most of the problems.

My car body vibrates after 80 km

Do you mean 80km/hr? If so then it sounds like you either have unbalanced tires or a bad wheel bearing. If you recently got new tires then it is probably an unbalanced tire, take the car back to your tire shop and ask them to re balance the tires. If that is not the problem then look into a new wheel bearing. These need to be pressed in and out, which most machine shops/mechanics will do for a small fee. Other than that you have to pull the hub out and take it with you to be pressed.

I just bought a 96 lasabre and it wobbles, the previous ower said something about it being caused by the brakes or rotors, please help

if you get a pulsation/vibration when you apply the brakes than the brake rotors are warped. If the pulsation/vibration can be felt as your driving without applying the brakes than some common causes could be a tire out of balance, a separated tire, or a bent wheel,

Bounce in van suspension or tires

Do you feel it at slow speed, like in the parking lot? If so, its a tire or wheel issue. At slow speed if the steering wheel wobbles, its in the front, if you feel it in your ****, its the rear. If its at high speed 40-50 it may be a balnce issue, have a shop that does a lot of tire work check it, stay out of chain stores. This should not be hard to find.

In a 1998 4x4 jimmy 4 door I am experiencing a vibration which feels like its in the front end. the only occurs while accelerating, but stops almost instantly after letting off the gas pedal. Vibration...

This could be a loose hub bearing causing the hub to move in and out .When accelerating the weight shift will be less on the front wheels so the hub may be moving in and out during this .Have this checked soon :)

Hi, I have a 2004 Toyota Corolla the steering wheel vibrates at any speed.Did wheel alignment but aint got better. Pls advise. Cheers, Anks

Vibration or a "shimmey" is an indication that the tires need to be balanced. This is not related to the wheel alignment you had done A poorly balanced tire will vibrate on its own, transferring the vibration all the way through the steering wheel. Have the tires balanced. If this doesn't fixy your issue, then the problem lies between the rotors (could have a warped rotor) and the rack and pinion. Best of luck on your problem.
