Vibration after flat back tire of Mazda RX8

Check your Antifreeze Level. Is it low? If it is add antifreeze and then check for a leak. Look closely around the radiator. My RX8 was doing the same thing and the leak was at the radiator.

WHY DOES MY FRONT RIGHT TIRE SIDE VIBRATE ON MY 2004 YUKON

Tire vibration can be caused by a few things. Here's what to check:
1. Check the tire inflation. Make sure it's at the recommended pressure.
2. Have a local tire shop check your tire balance. If a tire is out of balance you'll notice the vibration at speeds above 50mph.
3.Wheel alignment. If the alignment is out, the tire will show uneven wear and can cause vibration also.
4. If a front wheel bearing is going out, it can cause vibration, but since your car is only 5-6 years old, this probably isn't the case.
Hope this helps you narrow it down.
Best of success!

Car vibration after low tire pressure

Have the balance checked on the tire. After being that low, the edge of the wheel might have hit the road and knocked off a weight.

Drivers side Wheel Vibration at 70mph+ when on a curve

The first place to check is the wheel bearing. This is because of heat build up both from the flat and from the "doughnut" tire. Because it was a smaller tire it could have heated the bearing grease extensively causing it to liquefy. You may just need it repacked or possibly replaced. The next thing to check is the idle arm and the pitman arm. These are easy to fix, they just need greased at the fitting. These are the two most likely sources, please let me know if you need more help.

Low acceleration and no power

i would take those 2 coils off and check the backing of the packs. any discoloration indicates they are bad or going bad. coils may be working, but not to full potential due to grounding issues.

This is a tire pressure monitoring light. Check your air pressure.

Mazda 3 vibration prblem

I have been searching for a possible culprit on this and found the the WHEEL BEARING (inside the wheel hub assembly if I'm not mistaken) could be at fault. At low speeds you will feel/hear a sounds that seems to me coming from your tires (as if you had a flat, but you really don't) and it can cause vibration at higher speeds.

If the tire was run very long in its uninflated condition .. then it could have damaged cords or the belt ... or it could have heated to the point where the belt shifted .. that would unbalance the tire ... the tire should be removed, inspected for damage and rebalanced if ok .. its not a good idea to drive at 75 since the safety of the tire is questionable .. if the tire just sat for a long time underinflated but not being driven then it can take on a "set" or out of round condition .. that is temporary and will likely go away with continued driving .. driving with only 11 pounds wont take long to damage the tire ..
