Check out the 5 reasons why your car vibrates!

Since the car is something that we use regularly, it is inevitable that users will face problems during use or parts will deteriorate over time. When parts are not working properly, vehicles will send out signals to let us know, regardless of the severity of the problems.

One of the signs that cars might send out is vibration. It is a symptom indicating that your car has deteriorated or there is a problem in some of its parts. Despite being something that most drivers do not pay enough attention to and often ignore, the vibration of the car, in fact, indicates a malfunction that can result in serious consequences in the future.

Today, PTT Lubricants will help everyone identify the causes of the vibration so that the issue can be solved correctly. Let’s see what the causes are!

 

Deteriorated spark plug

Spark plugs are responsible for igniting and sending electric current to move the piston so that the engine can be driven. If the spark plug deteriorates, the car will vibrate while driving. It is recommended to have all spark plugs replaced as soon as possible so that the car can run smoothly as usual.

 

Worn out engine mount rubber

This problem often occurs in cars that are driven on rough roads frequently or have been used for a long time. It can be observed by seeing if the car vibrates while idling. This is because the engine mount rubber has worn out or has been damaged over use. It is recommended to bring the car to the service center and have mount rubber replaced so that the car can run smoothly again.

 

Slanted wheel alignment

When aligning the wheel, the suspension of the car that is connected to the wheels will also be adjusted. If the wheel alignment is slanted, the suspension components will also not angle properly, resulting in a tire imbalance. When the car is accelerated up to a certain speed, the steering wheels and the wheels will begin to shake to the point that it affects the driving. It is important that the wheel alignment is accurate and precise so that the wheels can be rotated in balance while driving.

 

Broken shock absorber

Another cause of the vibration is a broken shock absorber. The broken absorber will cause the car to vibrate or wobble when driving at high speed. The car can also bounce severely when driving through rough roads as the broken shock absorber will not be able to adequately absorb the vibration that occurs, giving the cabin more s than usual. Drivers should have the shock absorber replaced to solve this problem as soon as possible.

 

Brake system malfunctions 

If the brake disc encounters extremely hot conditions or is twisted from use, the car will severely vibrate when you brake or slow down the car. This severe vibration can even affect the steering wheel. The vibration can also be caused by worn brake pads or insufficient lubrication of the brake fluid. If the symptoms are found, bring your car to the service center to have braking systems inspected and fixed as soon as possible.
