Hello, i have a plymouth voyager se 1996 mileage 125000. about 6 months ago it started shaking really bad. we changed all tires and brakes and finally it stopped doing it. about 1 month ago it started shaking and making a popping noise in the right wheel. a buddy drove it and said it was wheel bearings, they were replaced in the right front side and now it is still doing it. it is shaking terrible and still making a popping noise when u turn to the left especially. i dont know what to do. do you have any suggestions?

t would look into the cv axles. look under the vehicle to see if any of the cv boots are split ,(allowing grease to cover the inner wheel well). the popping sounds to me like a bad cv joint. does it vibrate at certain speeds? upon acceleration? or all the time. let me know

Suggested Repair

Inspect the CV axles, especially the right side. Check whether any CV boots are split and leaking grease into the inner wheel well, and replace a worn CV joint or axle if the popping continues when turning.

Conversation Summary

A 1996 Plymouth Voyager with 125,000 miles shakes badly and makes a popping noise from the right wheel, especially when turning left. Tires, brakes, and the right front wheel bearings were already replaced without fixing it. The expert suggests inspecting the CV axles and boots for a split boot or bad CV joint and asks whether the vibration occurs at certain speeds, during acceleration, or all the time.
