Shakes or Wobbles problem
1998 Honda CRV 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual 17000+ miles

Dear Car Pros,
I have a 1998 Honda CR-V that shakes and wobbles anywhere from 58-65 MPH. Before and after these speeds, it's a very smooth drive. We had the tires rotated and balanced, so we are ruling this out for now.

Any thoughts?

Hi Melissa,

If the vibration is reduced when the throttle is released, the problem should be caused by the front CV shafts inner joints.

I had the same problem. My CRV AWD has shaking betwen 55-65 km/h. The problem has drive shaft who had an articulation loose. To fix whith an new one is 1200$. I replaced it with an old one and I pay 250$. Now all is fine.
