Shuddering at low speeds when turning

[alexseiji]

As of 2 days ago my car has developed a shudder which can only be felt at low speed left hand turns or when going 80+ on the freeway. I just did new pads and rotors and checked for any kind of wheel bearing play which I did not detect. At 80+ when acceleration my rear right starts to make a high pitch but subtle noise (Sometimes I think my mind is playing tricks on me). I competed in a HPDE event not too long ago and have noticed that my steering rack has a click to it when turning left and right from dead center although this i believe is a different issue.

I have decided that tomorrow I will remove wheels and recheck for play, and check cv joint boots for cracks and loss of grease. are there any other suggestions that anybody may have that I may be overlooking? And also what would be the best method to check for CV joint failure? Thankyou -Alexander

Normally i have experienced similar issues when wheel alignment and camber settings are way out. If not have a keen look at the Crossbar / Crossmember there might be a Crack or check the Nuts & bolts which fits the whole assy to the Body / Chassis.

See all Lower arm / Upper arm bush is good, check for your balljoints mainly this can cause your problem

thanks for the tip. Hopefully nothing is cracked but I will check to see if thats a possibility. if so i guess it would be a good time to get those reinforcement plates in haha.

well I checked for anything loose and everything seems to be nice and tight. Im still led to beleive that the shuddering is coming from a wheel bearing even though there isnt any play in the hub. Is this a possibilty? I dont really know what else to think. CV joints seem to operate nice and smooth, UV joint between the diff and drive shaft seem to have no play. Any other suggestions?

anybody?
