Issue: Montero Steering Wheel vibration

**Cccj** · August 29th, 2018 02:47 PM

Newbie here, please help. Not sure if it's normal but got myself a 2nd hand gen2. I noticed that I can really feel the road bumps from the steering wheel. I also compared the vibration from the dashboard and the steering wheel by holding both at the same time, there are more vibrations from the steering wheel. Any thoughts re this issue? I don't experience this on my sedan and I'm not sure if it's common with diesel engine cars.

Any advise will be highly appreciated.

does the frequency of the road bumps increase with speed? if so,
i would first check for very high tire pressures.
then, i would have the front tires tested for "out of round".

another possibility is that the front shocks are already dead. does the vehicle feel as if the shocks are frozen in position and do not play anymore?

Engine and transmission support have it checked.

My 1.4 AT fiesta and monty gen 2 both have minimal vibration(almost same level) on steering wheel while idling. Unlike sa previous gen innova abot gang second row ramdam sa spine gang yagballs.

Thanks sa replies. If it's engine or transmission support, should I also feel excessive vibration sa body or dashboard ni Monty ko? Kasi in my case, steering wheel lang. Even little bumps matagtag sya.

have it check by a reputable shop, baka may need higpitan or bushings na dapat palitan. it happened sa SGrandia van ko, ramdam tagtag sa manibela even sa medyo rough pavement. may hinigpitan sa may tie rod at bushings na pinalitan, then camber alignment, na-solb naman.
